Thanks to Pin Oak, Comp-U-Dopt is building a computer drive-thru for our community members without access to a computer at home.

Families will be able to register in the lottery system and if chosen, will receive a computer. The computer is free, theirs forever, comes with a productivity suite, and two-years of tech support.
