Donated Laptop Needed
Do you have a laptop that you don't need anymore? Jen's list member is
looking to help an elderly woman (65+ years) who volunteers her time as a
Cub Scout leader. This woman lives on an extremely small budget, yet uses
much of her money to provide activities for a local scouting troop. Every
week, she spends evenings with the scouts teaching them how to be better
citizens and role models to their peers and society. The laptop would be
used to help her track the boys' progress and awards earned. If you can
help, please email  <mailto:dnaves at sbcglobal.net> dnaves at sbcglobal.net
