      1. In 1999 KEGS recognized the opportunity to further assist our community by enhancing a computer training lab at the North Bellevue Community & Senior Center.  Using totally donated equipment and volunteer time, KEGS designed, built and installed a state-of-art computer training lab valued at $95,000.00. 

        Please visit our open letter of thanks to the original 1999 computer lab contributors.

        At the beginning of the Fall 2002 class sessions, the records show that 509 individual students had received training in the new facility (many of those students having attended multiple training sessions).

        KEGS continues to be responsible for administration and upgrades in the lab.  Recently KEGS negotiated the donation of over $27,000.00 of current software needed to upgrade the lab to today's standards.

        Please visit our page that identifies who contributed to our 2002 Lab Upgrade.

      2. In 2003 KEGS was given the opportunity to also support the Friends of Youth organization by taking on the administration of their computer lab located at the Kirkland Teen Union Building.   Friends of Youth is a great community service.  Here's a link to their web site: http://www.friendsofyouth.org/

        We are currently in the process of implementing upgrades at that facility.  Please keep looking here for more information.
