Contribute Towards a Laptop Computer

Through the generous contribution of a laptop computer, we can give special support to college-bound teenagers who are working their way towards a brighter future. While most college campuses have some computers available for student use, many also require that incoming students bring their own computer to school. For those who will be commuting to college, a portable computer is an essential tool for academic success.

Please consider contributing towards a laptop computer for a college-bound teenager served by The Home.

We are committed to providing the best laptop and software possible with your donation and are not tied to one brand or type of laptop. A typical example would be the following:

HP Pavillion Notebook DV1000 Series: The dv1000 series is the most lightweight member of the HP Pavilion notebook PC family. Combines digital entertainment features with powerful PC performance. Features: Intel® Celeron M and Pentium® M processors up to 745‡ (1.8 GHz), 333MHz DDR SDRAM, Up to 100 GB 4200 RPM Hard drive, Intel Graphics Accelerator 900. Includes: Windows XP Home Edition, HP QuickPlay, dual headphone jacks, Altec Lansing speakers, a port for an All-in-One Media Cable, and HP Photosmart Premier software.

We will also include a carrying case and lock for each laptop that is donated.
