How about The Alameda County Computer Resource Center,  a 501(c)(3) non-profit 
corporation.

One of the things they do is recycle old computers, install linux on them and 
give them away to worthy non-profit organizations, schools or 
underprivilidged individuals.

They also try to train under/unemployed people in the process.

See

Their form for applying for a computer:
