Non-profit organization helps to Empower Big Dreams | Community Spirit

VANCOUVER, Wash., -- Empower Up, Clark County's local computer education and reuse non-profit organization, donated three refurbished computers to the Dream Big Community Center's (DBCC) administrative offices Sept. 16.

Empower Up has pledged to to provide an additional 50 computers for the future DBCC community center's computer lab, classrooms and non-profit incubators over the coming year.

“We are extremely happy to be able to help other non-profits in Clark County,” said Empower Up executive director Oso Martin. “Like us, Dream Big wants to empower kids in our community and we like that a lot.”

“Receiving these computers fills a huge void for our staff, but also for our future center," said Dream Big Community Center executive director Nathan Webster, “I'm very grateful to have a local nonprofit like this that understands our goals, and wants to increase our efforts by providing this service.”

Empower Up provides free education resources to help those in need gain access to technology and the Internet. Empower Up accepts both working and non-working computers and other consumer electronics from the public for reuse and recycling.
