Cameron County–  DHR Health, the Health Sciences Institute at Renaissance, and Proyecto Juan Diego of Brownsville have teamed up with the nonprofit organization Compudopt to provide eligible Cameron County residents with free computers. The goal of the program is to ensure that households without a working computer or laptop have the tools they need to stay connected and thrive in today’s technology-driven world.

Each device provided through the initiative is completely free and includes two years of free tech support. Devices are awarded on a lottery basis, with one device per household, and are permanently owned by the recipient, with no tracking by serial numbers.

“We are proud to partner with Compudopt and other community partners to bring this vital program to the Cameron County community,” said Nori Zapata, DHR Health Senior Vice President of Education and Career Development.
