About the Maker(s)

James Burgett

Founder and executive director of ACCRC James Burgett began this operation in a spare bedroom with virtually no money. The warehouse relocated to San Leandro, Oakland, and most recently in Berkeley. Refurbished computers and related equipment are donated to schools, nonprofits and individuals.
