-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Free Geek Twin Cities is now accepting donations! Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2009 22:38:59 -0500 From: Amanda Luker <amanda at pinkslipmedia.org> Hi everyone! I'm pleased to announce that Free Geek Twin Cities is finally able to start accepting computer donations, starting THIS WEEKEND. Our open hours will start off being SATURDAYS NOON-5PM every weekend, and people can drop off their used equipment anytime between those times. If you are unfamiliar with this project, check out our website: http://freegeektwincities.org. We accept computer donations, then volunteers can come in and take apart computers for a set amount of hours, or learn how to rebuild them as working machines. After a volunteer has either accrued 24 hours of volunteer time or built six computers, they can take a computer -- that they are intimately familiar with -- home with them for free. Our location is 3405 Chicago Ave. S., and the entrance is at the back of the building. Our contact number is (612) 293-7339. It's currently a very raw space, but we'll be able to stick equipment in storage space in the basement until our work space is ready for us. Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions! We are also looking for people who might want to join our volunteer staff -- or to do a little of both! Amanda
