  • "I will be using my laptop for schooling, work, pictures, videos, creative writing, songwriting, beats and creating."

    —AM

  • "I plan on using this laptop for school classes to obtain my diploma."

    —LL

  • "Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the Digital Literacy Program. If I receive a laptop, I plan to use it for online classes, sending emails, shopping, streaming movies and TV shows, editing videos for social media, managing my social media accounts, and completing tasks that are difficult or not possible to do on my phone. Having a laptop would help me with school, personal projects, and everyday responsibilities."

    —DM

  • "I stepped out of my comfort zone this summer by enrolling in a digital literacy class through our public library. Through this program, I have expanded my skills and connected with other mothers in the community and received a new computer and Microsoft Office at no cost. This laptop is a significant blessing. While I value our library, it is often difficult to manage five children while attempting to work or research future opportunities. Having this technology allows me to focus on my goals from the comfort of my home."

Having trouble setting up your donated Human-I-T laptop because Windows is asking you to create or sign in to a Microsoft account? This short video walks you through how to finish Windows 11 setup using a local account instead. This may be helpful for participants who do not have a Microsoft account or prefer not to create one during setup.

Note: Follow the video carefully. If you get stuck, contact Human-I-T support or Save Texas Moms before continuing.
