About CyberLynx

Cyberlynx is a 501(c) (3) volunteer organization founded in 1996 in Coos County Oregon. Its mission is to both initiate and support projects that “bridge the digital divide” in Oregon’s south coast area. 

CyberLynx began as an organization whose mission was to provide an opportunity for community service through telecommunications (e.g. building a web site for the City, refurbishing donated computers and offering literacy training at the Senior Center. Recognizing the lack of both computers and computer literacy in the area, CyberLynx started by training youths about computers, involving them in a project to refurbish old computers and then providing opportunities to use them to train citizens.

Our goal is:

  • Giving technical assistance for community-based projects that promote the use of technology
  • Providing community opportunities for computer literacy and technical skills training.

VOLUNTEER!  Please join us as a volunteer instructor or lab assistant, or help us with administrative and marketing tasks.

CyberLynx is a supporter of Bandon Cares - a collaboration project of Bandon nonprofits to increase communication and cooperation.  Visit BandonCares to find out more.

GREAT NEWS!

CyberLynx has a mobile classroom.  Thanks to a grant from the Norman F. Sprague Jr. Foundation, CyberLynx now has six laptops that we can bring to classes for student's use.  They are equiped with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2007.  This updates the technology we have, expands the possible venues for classes and increases the topics of classes we can offer.

We are moving the 3 new Windows 7 desktops to THE BANDON COMMUNITY YOUTH CENTER.
