About Our New Location.

Project Reboot has moved to a new facility near the Home Depot store on Shady Grove Road, only about a mile away from our old location in Rockville, MD.

Reboot's New Address: 4 Choke Cherry Road, Rockville, MD 20850, see Reboot Directions
Reboot's New Phone Number: 301-330-0034 only during Reboot Hours.

Reboot's New Hours: Mondays, 1 to 5 pm, and Wednesdays, 10 am to 4 pm (except holidays). However: If you just show up, you might be disappointed. It's best to schedule visits in advance with Project Reboot Director Gerry Rosenkrantz via e-mail or phone.
Please, do not drop off donations except by prior arrangement.

The new Project Reboot location was officially opened on January 9, 2009, by the Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett and Montgomery County Council President Phil Andrews. In the photo below they are honoring Gerry Rosenkranz, the Director of Project Reboot for Reboot's long record of public service.

Want To Help Out? You can make a difference if you have time or other resources to spare. To donate computer hardware or software, to make a tax deductible donation, or volunteer to help Reboot, please contact Reboot Project Director Gerry Rosenkrantz.



Project Reboot accepts pre-arranged computer hardware and software donations at our workshop/storage facility in Rockville, MD, from individuals, companies and government agencies. There our volunteers (some experienced, some just learning) refurbish it after testing, repair, and upgrades. Hardware with current operating system software is then donated at very low cost to non-profit, educational, religion-based, and charitable organizations. We help schools, senior centers, religious organizations, and other groups that work with low and moderate income families, and other needy, local clients. Note that since March 1, 2009, our documentation requirements have changed, see Qualifications. Usually the only charge to the receipient is a nominal cash fee to cover expenses and software licensing, typically $10, see Fee. Printers, when available, require an added payment of $10 or $20.

Project Reboot currently accepts personal computers in the Pentium II class or above (e-mail us if you're not sure). Computers need not be in working order. Sorry, but from now on Reboot cannot accept tube-type (CRT) monitors unless each is accompanied by a computer or computer-compatible speaker set, cannot accept USB or serial keyboards or serial mice; for more information see Reboot Donation Details. And Reboot does not recyle Apple computers, but check out Washington Apple Pi.

You can also make a tax deductible cash donation directly to Project Reboot. We prefer PayPal. However, you do not need a PayPal account, you can donate in a safe and secure manner with a major credit card by clicking the PayPal logo below. The funds go directly to Project Reboot to be used for printer ink cartridges, spare parts, and other miscellaneous expenses related to recycling computers for those in need.
