Greetings all,
Thank you for any help in getting a Power Mac G4 or greater or PC CPU donated to my nonprofit organization. I've tried Apple and the retailer Microcenter before, without luck yet. If you know any contacts or ideas on a donated powerful CPU (even eMac, iMac, uMac, meMac!), please pass it on to me.
Here's some low-down on Abstraction Made Elementary (AME), the organization I founded and run. AME has helped to bring innovative and stimulating arts programming to low-income children since 1994. Website:

And my organization is also seeking board members and techies (especially those with fundraising experience). We are small but accomplished and based in Boston but open to the world! I would love to expand the digital art programs with Photoshop I've done with children and high school students.
We have collaborated with inner-city public elementary schools and museums, such as the Fuller Museum of Art, Harvard Art Museums, and the Provincetown Art Association & Museum. Together, we have brought programs to disadvantaged children that educate and excite them with the power of artistic expression. Our recent accomplishments include a 50-foot mural painted on the youth opportunity center RISE in Brockton, MA.
Over the past five years, AME has been supported by the New England Foundation for the Arts, Boston Cultural Council supported in part by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, Arts and Business Council of Greater Boston, and numerous corporations, such as IBM, Pfizer, Hewlett-Packard, and One on One Internet. AME has been featured in Newsweek and the Boston Globe.
Thanks for reading and any help in advance. Happy New Year...of course.
