How 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 15 of them. To achieve our goals,
we depend on donations of equipment, time and funds.
Can you give equipment? By donating
your gently used computer or laptop (with Windows XP or later) you help
others while avoiding the problems 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.

We
can use:
• your newer, gently used desktops
or laptops, with Windows XP or later
• 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. Our mailing address in the states
changes from time to time, and we can discuss mailing requirements.
Can you give of your time?
We 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
We hear from people who say, "we cannot contribute time
or a computer but we want to support this effort. Can we give you money?"
In a word, yes, you can donate securely via Paypal.
Can you help spread the word?
Please download our brochure and
share it with others.
Our 10-minute DVD about the CPJ project is a great
way to share the story with your faith or community group. Send
us an email and we'll get the ball rolling.
