We are currently accepting laptop donations for our Animation Program. Our goal is to provide computers to those in need, and we kindly ask for your assistance by donating any reusable laptops that are no older than 8 years. These laptops play a crucial role in our community as they allow individuals to access the necessary software for animation and design.
If you would like to make a donation, you can drop off your technology items at our location on Mondays through Thursdays, between 11:00-1:00 and 3:00-5:00, inside our lobby.

Please don't hesitate to contact us, and we will gladly arrange a pickup location.
