And we mean it -- straight from the Laptop Upcycle Lab in the basement of the United Way building. We are grateful to those businesses, organizations and individuals who think of us throughout the year allowing us to provide laptops to kids in need. With COVID forcing virtual learning everywhere, your generosity has allowed 800 students to get their work done. 
And (drumroll please), we’d like to pat everyone on this list on the virtual, safely distanced back for all your 2020 thinking that’s helped so many.

• Essence Global Advertising who has donated 140 laptops earning our first Laptop Legend award
• Guardian Data Destruction who has donated over 600 laptop bags
• Don Katz and Leslie Larson Foundation who donated funds to purchase US Sprint ConnectedED hotspots to deliver free WIFI to our laptop families.
• Montclair Foundation grants that purchased supplies for our internship program and covered our Lab’s rent and utilities
• Best Buy Community Grant that purchased supplies for our summer internship program 
• The United Way of Montclair for renting their generous space (even during construction!)

As we enter the Season of Giving and increased COVID restrictions, we know that more students will need laptops to get their basic education. We applaud and celebrate these amazing donors for their ongoing thoughtfulness and generosity.
Please consider adding your name to our thankful and thinking list for 2021 with a donation or proposal.

Thank you,

Sarah Damaskos, Co-founder and Board Member
