BayCon 2019 is proud to announce our charity for this year: the Computer History Museum! Located right here in the Bay Area, the Computer History Museum is a non-profit dedicated to preserving and collecting computing technology since the inception of the earliest hardware.
From their website:
The mission of the Computer History Museum is to preserve and present for posterity the artifacts and stories of the Information Age.
The Computer History Museum is a nonprofit organization with a four-decade history as the world’s leading institution exploring the history of computing and its ongoing impact on society. The Museum is dedicated to the preservation and celebration of computer history and is home to the largest international collection of computing artifacts in the world, encompassing computer hardware, software, documentation, ephemera, photographs, oral histories, and moving images.
BayCon 2019 will host two charity auctions, a Friday night charity casino/karaoke, and will welcome representatives from the CHM to spend the convention weekend with us. To find out more about the museum, visit their website.
For more information on how you can donate to either of our auctions, email our charity department.
