Answer: There is a ministry that has used computers available... They do have them fixed enough to get email accounts on them. They aren't free but sold at cost -- meaning what they have paid them for. They also have a lot of other supplies for schools, churches, medical clinics etc. Their focus is on connecting with the church leaders who actually live in those areas but they also work with missionaries and anyone involved in ministry.

Answer: Laptop Computers Currently Available For Overseas Only. On all computers the hard drive has been wiped clean. It is advisable that you have experiece setting up computers or know someone who can. The computer will boot the same as if you were booting off of a 3.5" floppy disk. You will need to load DOS, Windows and other programs as needed. Our fax number is 540-234 6262. Our phone number is 540-234-6222.
