DONOR PROGRAM
NETSPAN is sponsored by Creative Visions Foundation, Inc. which is a tax-exempt organization. Therefore, all donations of items may be fully deductible. An official form documenting the receipt and value of your contributions will be gladly provided.
Prospective individual or organizational donors may contribute computer technology or volunteer to do outreach for the Technology Bank, Home Access Initiative, or serve as repair technicians, trainers, or software tutors.
Dollar-Hours are accrued by school-aged volunteers which are later traded for computer technology items available at pre-determined rates of exchange.
Donors - The contribution of new and used computer technology to the Technology Bank is greatly appreciated. There are literally thousands of families in Athens-Clarke County who still do not have a computer in the home.
A number of middle and high school students are very interested in Community Service and sometimes a little pat on the back or a computer game exchanged for "dollar-hours" lets them know that they're really appreciated!
Technology Bank - Assistance is always needed for pick-up of donated items from our generous contributors. If you think this opportunity fits your schedule, then please let us know today. at netspan@bellsouth.net
Home Access Initiative - Volunteers are also needed to aid in the delivery of computers to identified families. This activity also allows for flexibility.
Repair Technicians - Occasionally, donated items and systems at network sites break down and need repair or upgrade. Volunteers skilled in computer repair are always welcome and needed to ensure continuous operation at each site and the provision of useful computer systems to families.
Trainers and Instructors - Volunteers are needed to provide entry-level training in computer repair and upgrades. Others are needed to provide instruction to network site personnel and participants on basic and advanced software applications such as web-page design, e-commerce site development, networking, etc.
Contact Information - If any of these opportunities interest you or your organization, please contact us by telephone at 706-369-1131 or via e-mail at netspan@bellsouth.net
