Tenderloin Computer Help Day
September 27, 2008
9:00 a.m. to 2 p.m.
St. Anthony Foundation, 150 Golden Gate Avenue at Jones
St. Anthony is a clean, well-run facility, and there are friendly guards stationed out on the sidewalk in front of the place. BART and Muni service St. Anthony’s, and there are plenty of paid parking structures nearby.
Notice the emphasis on Free Open Source Software at this event. St. Anthony is really “getting” the importance of Free Open Source Software:

Tenderloin Computer Help Day
September 27, 2008
Network Ministries, St. Anthony Foundation and other Tenderloin agencies strive to increase technology use by offering computer classes and labs. But many Tenderloin residents may have old or obsolete computer equipment and software is often too expensive.
At this event, volunteers will
1. Demonstrate how to use computers and install free open source software;
2. Provide technical support and troubleshooting for existing computers; and
4. Demonstrate how to sign up for email and browse the Internet to find useful information and resources.
You can select one of the teams or you can help out wherever you are needed.
Please consider coming to this event to increase the visibility of Free Open Source Software in the non-profit section in the San Francisco Bay Area!
