Not entirely so! Here's the website:

http://www.gatesfoundation.org/default.htm

Note that the motto there is "Bringing innovations in health and learning to the global community."

They specifically focus on providing computers for schools and working with libraries. It looks like someone in the Pacific Northwest might have some luck getting help, too.
