We are a faithbased organization located in Prichard, Alabama.  We
stepped out on faith and built a computer center depending on lap tops
from the Beaumont Foundation and received a letter from them that they
have decided not to fund any equipment any more.  We are in desperate
need for computers.  Is there anyone out there that can help us get some
donated computers.  We serve 67% low income individuals, 98% African
Americans with high percentage rate of drop out and no job training
skills.
