Who are we?
Computer to Kids is a student-organized club that meets up weekly at the C2K computer warehouse to refurbish, clean, and distribute computers to students and their families cross San Diego. Starting in January of 2020, our group of students--from Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines High School, and Westview High School--do a variety of work ranging from cleaning keyboards, opening Chromebooks, and swapping hard drives.

Our work fulfilled needs from families and schools in under-developed areas. A surge in remote study during the coronavirus pandemic boosted personal computer demands. In order to face these new challenges, C2K worked even harder to make sure students and parents across San Diego a personal computer they could depend on. Without a reliable connection to the internet, connecting to online school and workplaces would be difficult for these families.

I joined C2K in the Spring of 2020. In my two years of experience, I have met so many new people and tried so many new things. I always look forward to meeting my friends and learning something new every Saturday afternoon.

I joined C2K with Jack in early 2020. Since then, I have learned a lot regarding both leadership and computers. My overall experience has been very positive, and I hope to continue learning new things alongside the other members.
