After Craig Clark retired from managing a chain of convenience stores, he started fixing broken, donated laptop computers – and giving them away for free!

Over the last eight years, the 79-year-old “Tech Fairy” from Sarasota, Florida, has provided at least 700 people who couldn’t otherwise afford them with much-needed laptops for work or school.

“I never had a plan,” Clark says. “It was just something that happened…but I’m so pleased it did. I love fixing computers and watching people smile.”
