Computer Reach hosts in-person volunteer days every Friday from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. 

See our volunteer schedule.

Where?

All volunteers report to the new Computer Reach headquarters in Homewood at 7800 Susquehanna Street. We are so happy to have a LARGE free parking lot.

What will you do?

When you volunteer at Computer Reach, you learn how to:

  • evaluate recently donated computers, 

  • refurbish computers that are repairable and responsibly recycle any that are not,

  • test monitors, keyboards, and mice, and

  • pack up computer systems for shipment to individuals in need.

No experience needed.

  • We teach you all of the skills you need to volunteer with us and provide all tools/equipment. 

  • We accept volunteers ages 10+. Children under the age of 18 must have an adult with them. 

  • Technical and non-technical activities are available. There is something for everyone!
