I know a VERY worthy young person (13 yrs old, female) who spends 4-5
hours a day doing her homework.  She starts high school this year and
wants to join the band, but doesn't see how she will have time for their
concerts and outside-school-hours rehearsals.  After some questioning, I
found a lot of her homework time is spent rewriting papers, so a word
processor and printer would really help.

Problem:  her mom (sole supporter) makes about $7000/yr and she has two
siblings (10 & 12).  Mom cannot afford more than $200 for a computer.
Are there any sources for help in this situation?

Are there any foundations which help needy kids get computers?  She is
REAL smart (thats why so much homework, she's in a gifted student
program) so could learn to use any computer she could get (of course I'd
help her learn if she needs it)

Alternately, any of you out there have a computer sitting in your garage
that has been replaced by one bigger and better?  Would you loan it to a
worthy cause?

She lives in the Olympia, WA area (if this makes a difference) and I am
in Seattle.

Thanks in advance for any leads!
