Cameron / Partimus folks, perhaps y'all ought connect. :-)
I believe Partiums is (approximately?) based in(/around?) San Francisco, and also does / has done work with some East Bay (Oakland, if I recall correctly) school(s). I believe Grant is also out in East Bay, East of Concord.
Also including link to list of lists (of [L]UGs), in case that's also useful.
Thanks for reaching out and asking!

Hello,
I am contacting you on behalf of the company I work for. We are located in Concord, and are in the midst of a transition. We would like to get rid of some older PCs we have replaced with newer ones, and we are in the midst of wiping all of our hard drives. We were wondering if perhaps this was a Linux group that took donations, as we would rather put the PCs to use than scrap them as e-waste. If you do accept donations and would like to discuss this matter further, or if you do not accept donations but do know of other local groups that accept donations, please email me back.
Thanks,
Cameron
