Texas Center for the Visually Challenged

Opening Worlds - One Computer at a Time


How We Get Computers


It all starts with DONATIONS - desktop computers, laptops, and monitors. We need it all. Corporations and individuals are solicited to give us their old computers. A group of volunteers refurbishes older but still useful computers. The hard drive is erased for security purposes, the hardware is rebuilt, and software for the blind is loaded.

No minimum donation standard. When a computer cannot be refurbished, it is harvested for spare parts. Corporations can receive a tax deduction and maximize recycling options with their donations to TCVC.

You can arrange to have your old computers picked up by TCVC with a phone call 214.282.2581.

We ask you with great sincerity to help us help those that are visually challenged. Technology opens the window to the information age and our mission is dependent upon your gifts to our wonderful charity.
