Computers for Learning
Computers for Learning is a governmentwide program established by Executive Order 12999, where educationally useful excess federal equipment can be transferred to schools and educational nonprofit organizations.
We host the Computers for Learning website to help facilitate the transfer of computer equipment between federal agencies and schools and educational nonprofit organizations.

A school is eligible to receive donations through the Computers for Learning program if it is public, private, or parochial, serving pre-kindergarten through grade 12 students. Day care centers must provide a state-approved preschool curriculum.
