Any of y'all have unused, unwanted functioning computers that you may wish to donate in such circumstances? If so I may be able to find homes for some of 'em. I have some extra monitors, keyboards and mice... And am able to install an OS, but don't have much in the way of working CPUs.

Also, it's worth keeping in mind that families eligible for government assistance programs such as free or reduced price school lunches, Medicaid or SNAP are eligible for $9.95/month Internet via Comcast's Internet Essentials program:
