Roswell: PNM, Public Service Company of New Mexico, today donated three reconditioned computers to the Boys and Girls Club of Roswell to replace machines that were recently destroyed. The company also donated a high-speed printer.

"The Boys and Girls Club performs a great service in our community," said Joseph Brady, PNM community representative. "They needed these computers to help our children reach their highest levels of academic development so they will be prepared to become tomorrow's leaders. PNM is grateful for the opportunity to assist with this program."

The personal computers will be used by about 30 children every day, said Camilo Romero, executive director of the Boys and Girls Club. "We have some educational software that helps kids realize their learning potential. We will also use the computers during our 'Power Hour,' which is devoted to homework and improving typing skills."

PNM provides gas service to 16,500 customers in the Roswell area. The investor-owned utility started in 1917 and has a long history of being a good corporate citizen, responding to community needs throughout the state.
