Spring Internet Resources for Low-Income Families

Texas residents struggling with finances are often the same people grappling with the digital divide — the lack of access to internet-capable devices or dependable high-speed internet. Given how much of our daily activities necessitate some type of online participation, lacking access to these devices becomes a significant obstacle that’s increasingly difficult to overcome. Fortunately, there are organizations hard at work, helping to close that gap, and the following lists offer some of those locations in Spring, Texas:

Discounted Distance Learning Devices in Spring

• Comp-U-Dopt: Based in Houston, this education-oriented non-profit organization Comp-U-Dopt has donated over 25,000 computers and countless hours of computer education to underserved youth in the Houston area. Every Friday, Comp-U-Dopt hosts a laptop lottery online. If you have a qualifying child in grades K through 12 in Harris County, you may submit a laptop lottery application online.
• Goodwill Houston: In partnership with the Dell Reconnect program, Goodwill will take any computer or digital device donation, assess its condition, then recycle or refurbish it. All refurbished devices are for sale in one of Goodwill Houston’s retail locations. 
• Computers With Causes: Computers With Causes is a non-profit group solely focused on recycling computers and putting them in the hands of those who demonstrate financial need. The organization accomplishes this process by accepting donations of used computer equipment from organizations and businesses all over the country. To apply for a computer gift from Computers With Causes, submit an application online and wait 30 days for a response.
