Hello; I am on the Executive Board of the Huron Shores Writing Institute which has a "sister program" in Muehlhausen, Germany. Each year we conduct an exchange program in which we bring together a variety of individuals from around the world for inter-cultural exchange, writing workshops and other educational activities which culminate in the now well-recognized bi-lingual book BREAKWALL. Because our board is entirely compose of people who donate their time to bring together these rich experiences; and also all board memebers serve without pay we have a number of needs. First of all let me say that we are at a juncture at which many people will be upgrading computer systems in order to accomodate WINDOWS 95. We desperately need the (tax-deductable; at least in the United States) donation of 1) any desktop 386 or preferably 486 that can run WINDOWS with a CD ROM and sound card. Also our sister organization in Muehlhausen has translation programs on CD ROM but does not yet have the drive. Is there some kind indiviudal who would be able to donate any CD-ROM drive no matter the speed to either the American organization or our German counterpart? This would be most appreciated. Finally, we need any and all 386 and up comuters that can be used by our students; software and other hardware that anyone might be willing to part with. In particular in Germany we also are looking for a FAX/MODEM card that would run with the v.34 standard. If anyone would be kind enough to help an organization that has dedicated its mission toward helping others please get directly in touch with me through email or call me at: Robert Dickerson 703-553-3935 any and all help would be most appreciated. Thank you from both The Huron Shores Writing Intitute and the Muehlhausen Initiative- Robert B. Dickerson -- Robert B.
