Computers 4 Kids (C4K)
Contact Information
The Computers 4 Kids (C4K) program makes it possible to request and to donate state-owned, surplus computers and computer-related equipment to any public school district or educational service district in Washington state.
Equipment designated for C4K must meet the state’s minimum configuration standards. Configuration standards, and program and distribution guidelines were developed by staff at OSPI, the departments of Corrections and Enterprise Services, K-12 school districts and educational service districts.
State Configuration Standards
All C4K computers are configured to meet Washington state standards. Most machines will arrive without an operating system. We can’t guarantee brand choice, however we try to match brands and other specifications, if possible, on each shipment. If there are multiple brands in stock when your school's name comes up on the list, you might get a choice.
