	:Most donors give voluntary cash donations to Free Geek when they donate equipment. The acquisition of a truck to pickup hardware donations from residential and commercial areas will result in an increase in voluntary cash donations. We predict that the convenience of this service will fuel the desire of those served by this project to voluntarily donate money to Free Geek. Additionally, the rate of payment for raw materials increases when they are delivered directly to the vendor. Free Geek's raw materials from recycled equipment are currently picked up by each vendor and therefore Free Geek's recycling revenue will increase. Lastly, the higher quality computers which Free Geek will receive from businesses will sell for a higher price in our Thrift Store, thus increasing our revenue. These three streams of revenue will increase significantly enough to fully cover the project's ongoing operating expenses.		:Most donors give voluntary cash donations to Free Geek when they donate equipment.

The cost of affixing appropriate signage on the truck is a direct quote from Mobile Ad Marketing's website.
