ELY, Nev. – The Bureau of Land Management Ely District on Tuesday donated 65 desktop and 11 laptop computers, and related equipment to the Lincoln County School District.
The donation was made possible through the Computers for Learning program (CFL), which encourages agencies, to the extent permitted by law, to transfer computers and related peripheral equipment excess to their needs directly to schools and some educational nonprofit organizations. The CFL program specifically matches the computer needs of schools and educational nonprofit organizations with excess equipment in federal agencies.
The CFL program’s goal is to make modern computer technology an integral part of every classroom so that every child has the opportunity to be educated to his or her full potential. To learn more about the CFL program go to http://computersforlearning.gov/
