Desktop computers aren't only everywhere , but for the most part even the new ones are obsolete after just a year. This is not to claim they aren't still in use, but upgrades for desktop PCs happen so fast and the programme development moves just as quick. many people feel the urge to stay alongside of the times and get a new computer virtually as quickly as they hit the market.
There's the problem of the old computer and its fate after the new one is installed in the office or home.
For the main part, the old PCs simply are put on a shelf, in case there are any problems with the new one and in time are simply forgotten. There's a way though, to aid others out with these older, gently used computers that can put a few dollars back into the your pocket.
These older PCs are likely still in adequate condition, unlike all laptop computers which take quite a beating, and with the flip of a switch, could be put right back into use. There are organizations that will take these PCs and distribute them to worthy causes like school and work force development centers. This allows somebody else to get rather more use out of something that its prior owner outgrew but isn't non-operational as yet.
A mention of a return was made at the start and this comes from the tax reduction that most donators would qualify for, once the PC has either been picked up or dropped off. The great majority of recyclers that work with these computers are non-profit organisations which will turn over a bill when the computer is delivered to them. This may then be deducted off the donator's taxes on the following year's filing.
This is a twofold win as the deduction can help with the taxes and the donation of the computer will go to a deserving cause. This allows the donator to help others and at the same time they're helping themselves. This is a win win situation for all parties concerned and will be considered before letting that slightly older computer just get dusty instead of being used.

Aged desktop computers are all over the place thrown away with the portable keyboard, but still the updated computers out-of-date right after one year or so, therefore Neil Johns suggests donating old desktop computers for a sound non-profit organisation.
