RMP recently donated three refurbished laptops to some students at Jeremiah Rhodes Middle School, and later we gave three desktops to three other students. Here are some letters of thanks from the students who won the drawing, and RMP is humbled by their thanks and their hopes. These young people want to learn and they have plans for their futures and support from their families. We hope to continue with this association, and we are still on the look out for laptops which we can refurbish and give to such students in the belief that we can work to bridge the digital divide by using open -- source and refurbished computers.
