Give to the Max Day 2020: Help us Lease a Truck!

Having access to used computers is crucial to our mission to close the digital divide in Minnesota. Currently, MCFS rents trucks as needed to pick up computer donations from businesses all across the state. This is not only expensive (we spend about $300 each time we pick up a donation), but it makes the process of scheduling donation pick-ups much harder.

Our goal is to raise $15,000, which would allow us to lease a branded 26' truck for one year.  This would make a huge impact on the number of computer donations we are able to take in and allow us to impact hundreds of additional students every year.

This Give to the Max Day, we need your support. All donations made through November 19 will help bring us one step closer to streamlining our intake process and allowing us to increase the number of computer donations that come in the door.

Sarah Anne, a student who received a computer for distance learning wrote us a note to tell us how much the laptop she received from MCFS means to her.

"Having a computer will help me immensely. It is one of the most valuable tools I need in order to succeed. Not only are my classes 80% online but the freedom a computer gives makes my life so much easier. No longer do I have to figure when my dad works and when can I go to school to complete homework. No longer do I have to load all of my work one the few days I am at school. Now I have the freedom to do my school work at home."
