We thanks Wes P., Utah, USA and other sponsors for his fundraising action, that collected money for computers to the orphanage #3 of Zaporozhye.

$1046 was collected and 2 modern computers with TFT monitors were bought.

Children of the orphanage #3 thanks for new PCs! (note, that US flag is not my idea - it's thing of Vladik Boyko. Someone gave this flag to him in the summer camp)

Computers configuration is:

Processor Celeron 2,53 GHz, 256 and 512 MB RAM, DVD-RW, LCD (TFT) monitors Belinea 17'.

Two computers together costs $1000. I added $160 from our fund because I thought that it would be not good decision to buy outdated CRT monitors. So new 17' LCD monitors were bought. It will save children's eyes and we will have a enough free space on the tables.

Now orphanage #3 have 3 new and 1 old computers.

$100.00 Craig and Penny Mismash

$20.00 Matt Todd
