Technical Assistance

TAPP receives donations from companies and individuals who are eager to donate their time and surplus computer equipment to benefit the people in their communities. We repair and refurbish the computers as required, getting them ready for community placement at a very reasonable cost. If you are receiving social assistance, the cost of your computer may be covered. Please contact us for more information.

Many of us have experienced problems and glitches with our computer systems. Breakdowns create a lot of down time and, coupled with the frequent loss of valuable information can be a frustrating experience. Out of all the things we want our computers to do, most of all we want them to work.
