SERJobs Partners with Compudopt to Provide 200 Free Laptops to Local Job Seekers at Winter Graduation Ceremony
Houston, TX — December 12, 2025
SERJobs, a leading nonprofit workforce development organization serving the Greater Houston region, is proud to announce a special partnership with Compudopt to distribute 200 free laptops to SERJobs members and eligible community participants during its Winter Graduation Ceremony on December 12, 2025.
The laptop distribution empowers individuals with the tools they need to continue their career journeys — from accessing online job applications, to skill-based training, digital literacy resources, virtual interviews, and ongoing financial coaching.
The giveaway is part of Compudopt’s mission to ensure every family has access to the technology required to participate fully in today’s digitally forward economy, regardless of income. Each laptop comes with a two-year warranty and free tech support, helping remove barriers to workforce participation.
Individuals receiving laptops represent a wide range of SERJobs training programs, including CDL, Electrical, Construction, HVAC, Career Readiness, YouthBuild, and other skill-based pathways that prepare adults and young adults for employment in high-demand industries.
“Access to technology is access to opportunity,” said SERJobs CEO Liliana Rambo. “These laptops allow our members to pursue certifications, apply for jobs, complete training, and stay connected to the resources that move them toward long-term stability. We are grateful to Compudopt for helping remove one of the biggest barriers facing job seekers today.”
“Technology access is the foundation of economic mobility,” said Compudopt CEO Megan Steckly. “It opens the door to greater employment opportunities, education, skill-building and financial resources that shape our community’s future. Compudopt is proud to partner with SERJobs to break down digital barriers and ensure more families have the tools to succeed.”
More than 200 SERJobs members registered to receive a laptop. Due to overwhelming demand, individuals not selected for this giveaway will be invited to participate in future distribution events with Compudopt.
The laptop distribution will take place immediately following the Winter Graduation ceremony at the SERJobs Workforce Training & Resource Center located at 1960 Tellepsen St., Houston, TX 77023.
