I received this today. Given how often I see people on this list ask
"where can I donate unneeded computer hardware", some of us might be able
to help and I thought it might be relevant.

Forward to the appropriate
people you think may be able to supply this (i.e. your CEO/boss/equipment
supplier :)). Note that they aren't just looking for equipment but
for tech *people* as well. The details are below.


The New York American Red Cross is in dire need of technology equipment
and services. The field workers and sites have little,
if any, means of communication and the central
office is processing way too much on completely paper systems. Your
help in acquiring these resources would be greatly appreciated.

If you can help, please contact:

Joe Leo, Assistant Director, Business
Applications, IT

American Red Cross in Greater New York
phone: 212.875.2409
email: jleo AT arcgny.org
150 Amsterdam Avenue
New York, NY 10023

PLEASE NOTE: His email is slammed, so don't resend your messages over and
over again.

Following is the list of equipment that the Red Cross
needs for its field workers and expanded Emergency Operations
Centers. It also needs certified Citrix engineers and
Microsoft-certified consultants.


40 IBM computers and laptops (with NICs)
Monitors (with desktops)
Any storage solutions
25 10/100 hubs (8+ Ports)
100 Cat5 cables (All lengths)
50 power strips
Any IBM-compatible memory
Any 3Com wireless NIC cards and LAN products
30 desktop-size UPSs
15 LaserJet printers (HP 1100 or faster) and
printer supplies

20 external Zip drives and disks
Any diskettes and R/W CDs
5 external CD burners
5 duplex document scanners
25 extension cords
any colored tie wraps
any Velcro cable wraps

50 Microsoft Exchange CALs

15 PC Anywhere licenses
