The Google Graphing Calculator

Well, Google has gone and done it. They've turned the whole internet into one gigantic FREE graphing calculator.
Read the recent engadget post to find out how to use it.

Do you need or can you donate your old graphing calculators?

Do you have any unneeded graphing calculators that you want another school to use?

Do you know a teacher who wants to use graphing calculators in their classroom and has no way to get them?

Charitable Calculators' goal is to be a conduit of graphing calculators that are no longer needed by schools or school districts mainly in the United States. These durable calculators are needed by other schools mainly overseas but also in the US.

Charitable Calculators is currently seeking donated graphing calculators for schools in the U.S., Haiti, Jamaica, and Namibia.
