Hawaiian Hope provides computer access to homeless
Hawaiian Hope, a nonprofit whose goal is to give the homeless computer access, plans to expand its offerings. The group already provides IT services in 10 homeless shelters in Hawaii using donated computers and strives to make technology available to everyone by refurbishing donated PCs, hardware and monitors. Hawaiian Hope is remodeling an empty space near Honolulu Community College, and hopes that the computer lab will put classrooms in homeless shelters. The group will also give computers to families that move out of the shelters.
