​​Computers For People Inc. was founded in 2019 by then 15 year old Dylan Zajac in Hoboken, NJ. The non-profit was formed through his vision to create a sustainable solution to the mass pollution of e-waste and the ever-growing digital divide. Computers 4 People has grown to a leading organization tackling the digital divide in the New York City Metropolitan area.

​"Computers 4 People has given me the opportunity to continue in my quest for higher education. Prior to the pandemic we're experiencing, I greatly needed a computer to do my school work and help navigate through the internet. Since all CUNY and SUNY have moved to distant learning it has been nothing but blessings. Dylan, thank you, along with your organization for the help you have provided for me. I will forever be grateful."

The computers are a great asset to the community center. The students are now able to sign into their able online classes. Students are now able to practice social distancing in support of covid-19 safety protocols. Without Computers 4 People's generous donation the center would not be able to provide technology resource to students in need during our Youth Tutoring program.

Triangle Park Community Center

Youth have been able to use computers to catch up on assignments and homework that aren't accessible from home due to no internet. These computers couldn’t have come at a better time with so many youths relying on cellular devices to do online schooling. Thank you so much for helping us give this opportunity to the families we service.

The donation has tremendously helped our agency.  The staff uses one for work purposes, and clients have been able to used them for homework assignments and job searches. ​

Family Promise of Hudson County

We distributed the computers to children who didn’t receive laptops from their public school, and therefore weren’t able to participate in distance learning during the pandemic schools shutdown, or had to share a device with a parent or sibling. This has been tremendously important to the people we serve—filling a need, rather than a preference—and has enabled us, as an organization, to say that we have fulfilled our purpose, which is to support the refugees that are brought in to the United States through the auspices of the State Department, and to give them the opportunities they should expect.
