There's a group called DOCChicago that I'm somewhat associated with:

http://www.docchicago.net/

They're in the business of getting technology into the hands of people
in the projects. THey could use ANYTHING you could get them. I'm in
the process of getting a/some GNU/Linux servers set up for them, as
