Transfer of Excess and Surplus Federal Computer Equipment

Executive order 12999, Educational Technology: Ensuring Opportunity for All Children in the Next Century, directs agencies--to the extent permitted by law and where appropriate--to transfer computers and related peripheral tools, determined to be excess to the needs of the agency, directly to schools and nonprofit educational organizations. The order also encourages federal employees to volunteer their time and expertise to assist teachers and to connect classrooms. The General Services Administration, which establishes policy for and provides economical and efficient management of government property and records, participates in this transfer program.
