Concerned about a lack of accessibility to technology education and computers in public
schools, Intel and the Northwest Regional Education Service District (NWRESD) conceived
StRUT in 1995. This program has transitioned to Region 9 ESD in The Dalles, OR.
- Students evaluate, repair and refurbish donated computers and in turn donate those
computers to local schools.
- Students gain valuable skills and schools get free computers.
- The program started with four schools, and has grown to dozens of Oregon schools
participating in StRUT.
- The program has proliferated to most of Intel's US sites.
- Intel does not direct nor donate used equipment to specific schools. All used equipment
available for school donations is sent to StRUT.
