| − | My name is '''<your name>''', and I'm your Free Geek grant shepherd. As your shepherd, I'll be making sure that your hardware needs are met as much as possible. I'm writing to tell you that the '''<organization name>''' grant application has been approved.

| − | I can give you '''<approved hardware>''' during one of these times:

| − | | |
| − | '''<availability>'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Please select one specific date and time and contact me, letting me know when exactly works for you. If no time given works for you, tell me and we can work something out. The day you (or another representative from '''<organization name>''') come to pick up your grant, let the front desk person know that you are looking for me ('''<your name>''') for a grant. Additionally, if possible, please bring print outs of our e-mail correspondence.

| − | | |
| − | '''<only include the following if they are receiving systems>'''I would like to let you know that all PCs and laptops that we give out come installed with Ubuntu Linux (more info can be found at ubuntu.com) as an operating system. Ubuntu Linux is free and open-source, which means it costs $0 to operate and there are people all around the world who are constantly developing it. It runs well on older as well as current PCs and works with most printers, scanners, cameras, etc. You are free to do whatever you'd like with your organization's computers, including installing another operating system like Macintosh OS X or Windows Vista. However, if you choose to keep Ubuntu on your computer Free Geek will provide tech support for up to one year after you receive your computer.
