Wanted: Cast-Off Computers for Schools

If you have upgraded your computer system and you have an outdated computer, printers or associated equipment which you are no longer using, please consider donating this equipment for use in the Philadelphia City High Schools. Ingrid Waldron runs a series of workshops for city high school biology teachers, and they have been very grateful for past donations which they have put to good use in their classrooms. Peter Conn is working on faculty and curriculum development at University City High School, and they also would be grateful for donated computers.

If you are interested in making a donation, please contact Ingrid Waldron (898-8396 or iwaldron@sas) or Peter Conn (898-5726 or pconn@english) to make arrangements.
