 Computers for Schools-BC has donated over 85,000 computers to schools
and libraries all across British Columbia (http://www.cfsbc.ca/).

The Electronic Recycling Association is a non-profit that donates
computers to charities (http://www.era.ca/donations/recycling/).

The former "Find a clone a home" project appears to be defunct.
