Greater Valley Tech is proud to partner with the United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley on Project Macsimum Impact! Our goal is to distribute 20 new or gently used Macs to families in need in the Winchester, Frederick County, and Clarke County areas. With your help, we can make a difference for our local families.
What We're Doing
Over the next couple of months, we'll be collecting new or gently used Macs and getting them back into tip top shape. We'll be cleaning them up, reloading Mac OS X, and installing software, and then, just about the time school starts, we'll be distributing the computers to families in our local area.
What We're Looking For
Your gently used iMac or Mac laptop will work best because those have built-in displays, and in the case of the laptops, keyboards too. If you want to donate your old software to go with it, that's a bonus. Here's a list of Macs that would be ideal for donation:
Other desktop model Macs such as the Power Mac G4, Power Mac G5, or Mac Pro are certainly acceptable, but would need monitors and keyboards to go with them. If you're uncertain whether or not you should donate a particular Mac, please contact us and let's talk about it.
How to Donate
If you're in the Winchester area, you can drop off your Mac at the local United Way offices. Here's a nice map to help you find them.

If you're outside the local Winchester area, we will gladly pick it up.
