May was a busy month for us. Our annual Spring Connections event was a big success. On May 26th we had our annual Spring Connections event at Harry's Harbour Place. This was our most successful event yet. We had over 40 auction items that were donated and over 85 event tickets sold. Many guests went home with great prizes. At the event we always honor one company or organization that has above and beyond to help the Ed Tech Foundation during the year. This year's honoree was Sunnking Inc. Sunnking has helped us recycle all our old equipment at each site we work at. In January they picked up over 100 CRT monitors for us. At this event we raised $4500. Thanks again to all who attended and who donated auction items to the event.

Besides our Spring Connections event we are well underway planning for this year's Ed Tech Day. We are now contacting all sites that have registered for Ed Tech Day 2011. So far we have 15 sites registered.  After our preliminary phone calls with the sites we will assign team leaders in June to each one of these sites.

We have set up a lab at Working Knowledge to build and refresh all computers that have been donated to us. We will be working in team of 5-6 people and rebuilding these computers on different days and times. If you would like to help us rebuild these computers and servers please contact us at info@edtechday.org.

Save the Date - June 28th - 8-3pm - eRecycle Buffalo - We will recycle all your electronic equipment! stay tuned for more information.
