I am an independent computer consultant since 1987. Over 15 years ago, I saw that my clients didn't have what to do with their used computers after they upgraded. I started to gather used systems and parts and put together working computers.

These refurbished computers are then donated to needy individuals and organizations. This includes people who are trying to get on their feet financially, sick children and various charity organizations.

The gemach ( Hebrew for "acts of kindness") is just a one man operation. It is not a registered charity. That simply costs too much. I have been funding everything from my own pocket with very little help until now. I cannot continue alone. I need your help.

A side benefit is that it helps the ecology by keeping computers out of landfills.

I am seeking funds mainly to pay the rent on the small work and storage space that I use.

I am also trying to add 3 new projects to the gemach. 

1) A lending library of computer books.

2) A lending library of software to learn computer related topics.

3) Lending of laptops for hospitalized people.

Besides money, the gemach always needs computers (Pentium 4 or better), working laptops, hardware, software, computer books and computer learning programs.
