Computers for kidsHow you can help
CPJ pays no salaries and strives for zero overhead. Our goal is to stay "lean and mean." We do not compete with other community service groups here in town and, in fact have provided support to a number of them. To achieve our goals, we depend on donated equipment, time and funds.

Can you give equipment? By donating your gently used computer or laptop (minimum Pentium speed) you help others while avoiding the toxic waste problem associated with disposal of computer parts.Upon request we can provide a letter thanking you for the donation which you may choose to use for tax purposes.
Computers for kids
We can use:
• Windows 98 and newer, gently used desktops or laptops
• Monitors and other peripherals are also needed - check with us on these
If you are in San Miguel or nearby, contact us to arrange a pickup.

If you are in the States please email us about your prospective donation.

Mailing equipment is easy. You send the equipment to Dallas, then we take care of shipping it to San Miguel. Mailing requirements: 1) do not include mice and keyboards, 2) label the boxes with complete information about the contents (model number, serial number, etc) and 3) make sure the shipping label includes ATTN: Rotary Computers/Mexico. Ship to:
        Computadoras Pro Jovenes
        2405 Pipeline Road
        Cleburne, TX 76033

Can you give of your time?
Computers for kidsWe need mentors. You do not need to be computer savvy for this. If you can use Word and work with documents you will do fine. Can you load a program onto a computer? Simple stuff like that. A little Spanish goes a long way but many of our mentors are a bit rusty – well, a lot rusty.   

We need drivers. Someone to pick up computers from a donor. Then to move a computer from the technician's shop to a school. No Spanish required here, just a means of transportation.

Monetary Gifts
