		 Got hardware and software you don't use anymore?

		Got enough money that you can afford to be generous
		    with that which others can put to good use?

        I am co-chairman of the "PTF Education Committee" (PTF is
Parent-Teacher-Fellowship) for a private, non-profit, Christian elementary/
middle school in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We have three known-to-be-working Apples
and one IBM PC. We also have some misc. stuff that has recently been donated
by people that read this newsgroup. The school's name is Isaac Newton 
Christian Academy. Money is tight, and the roof needs repair, so usually 
fund raising tends to be directed towards things other than computers. :-(

        We are, right now, working on establishing a "Computer Lab", and have
been soliciting donations.

	We ask that if you have ANY Apple, Atari ST, Amiga or MS-DOS
hardware/ software items, partial systems, or complete systems, you
would SERIOUSLY consider donating these to our school. Even if it is an
item that needs repair, we'd be happy to accept it IF we know the
repair costs involved before it is
shipped to us.

	Even though we will appreciate any donation, here are some specific
	things we are looking for at this time:

		o  EGA graphics monitor for an IBM XT
		o  WordPerfect 4.2 for an IBM PC
		o  Educational software for an IBM PC
		o  Additional IBM PC's
		o  Color monitor for an Apple II+
		o  Educational software for an Apple II+, IIe or //c
		o  Typing Tutor III for Apple II or IBM PC
		o  Amiga 500 Systems
		o  Atari ST Systems
		o  Power Supply for the original Commodore C-64

	REMEMBER... this is a BONA FIDE non-profit organization!

Thank you for your consideration and support,

Bruce Rothwell
