COUNTY PROVIDES REFURBISHED LAPTOPS TO FOSTER YOUTH

 By Anita Lightfoot, County of San Diego Communications Office
 
 
December 7, 2024 (San Diego) – Christmas arrived a little early on December 7 for some of the region’s foster youth and foster families. An annual pre-holiday laptop giveaway was held this morning by the County of San Diego and the Futures Foundation.
 
The laptops, formerly used by County employees, are freshly refurbished by technology services contractor Peraton, and then distributed to the youth and families for reuse.
 
The computers will provide families, students and transitioning foster youth with a valuable tool for their education while also preserving the environment by being reused.
