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
