Computers for BCC4K
Ocean Ridge Residents Donate Computers for Students
Ocean Ridge Charities Association (ORCA) recently held a collection in support of Brunswick County Computers for Kids (BCC4K) - a federally-recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. BCC4K refurbishes used computers for use by county students in need of a home computer. Since its inception in 2006, BCC4K has refurbished and donated over 4,000 systems. Thanks to our residents, 26 more items have been added to that inventory.
Let’s do to again! Did Santa bring you a new computer? Looking to get rid of your old one? Watch for details in March on the next opportunity to support BCC4K.
