Device Distribution
The United Way Greater Chippewa Valley Device Distribution Program has a goal of providing affordable computers to individuals, families, students, and workers. This program provides eligible households with a refurbished computer. We have options for Windows 11 devices ($40) or Chromebooks (Free).
Note: Chromebooks require access to the internet or hotspot for the devices to work.
Computers are limited to one per household. You must be a resident of Eau Claire County or Chippewa County. The devices distributed through United Way are sold “as is” and have been inspected by the supplier and United Way staff.
- Pickup for approved devices will be at United Way's office on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 8am - 4pm.
- Please bring your ID at pickup
- Address: 1729 Westgate Road, Eau Claire WI, 54703
Rules
- Once you are contacted, you will have one month to pick up your device
- You must bring a photo ID and sign for you device upon picking up
- If you have an issue with your device, you must return it for exchange within 2 weeks. Please text your request to Stacy at 715.308.8542
- If you have applied for a device in the past year, you will not be approved again. Unted Way requires a minimum of one year (12 months) in between device distribution as this is a public service and we want to ensure that we have enough devices for everyone that needs one.
