Hewlett-Packard donates High-end Color Laser Printers to Boys & Girls Clubs

Boys & Girls Clubs of Oakland (BGCO) is proud to announce that Hewlett-Packard donated a brand-new, state-of-art Color Laser printer to BGCO.

(PRWEB) August 23, 2008 -- Boys & Girls Clubs of Oakland (BGCO) is proud to announce that Hewlett-Packard donated a brand-new, state-of-art Color Laser printer to BGCO. Through HPs Global Social Investment organization, Boys & Girls Clubs of America was selected to receive a total of 105 HP Color LaserJet 9500hdn printers (estimated value of $8,000/each). BGCA, in turn, identified 105 Club organizations that had the capacity and need for such a high-production printer. This printer will allow our Club to print high-quality materials that we would have otherwise had to pay an outside service to produce. This will result in a great cost savings to our organization. BGCO would like to thank HP for their support of our Club and its mission in serving youth.

Additionally, Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) and Hewlett-Packard Company recently launched a first-of-its-kind national digital video service program that allows families to access and purchase age-appropriate digital content in a safe and secure online environment. The BGCA videostore is now live and can be accessed by visiting www.bgcavideostore.com. Later this year, BGCA Videocards will be available for purchase in Circuit City stores. BGCA will receive a portion of the proceeds from all purchases made both online and from video gift cards sold at Circuit City stores.
