Volunteers are needed in Nassau and Suffolk Counties for the Community Computer Connections Program which takes donated computers and refurbishes them under in a Microsoft Refurbishing License. The computers are then delivered to the homes of families, students, seniors and veterans who would otherwise not be able to afford a computer. Most of the work you do can be done in the comfort and safety of your home. And deliveries to clients can be done in a contactless manner.
Assignments are scheduled at the pace desired by and convenience of the volunteers, who work out of their own homes. You do, however, need to be based on Long Island.
