MIAMI-DADE – Commissioner Oliver G. Gilbert, III will host the 17th edition of his annual laptop giveaway for college-bound seniors in Miami-Dade County’s District 1 community on Saturday, May 31, at 9 a.m. The event will take place at Commissioner Gilbert’s District 1 Office, located at 17988 NW 27th Ave., Miami Gardens, FL 33056.

During this event, Commissioner Gilbert will provide 200 laptops to college-bound high school seniors to help them prepare for college in the fall by eliminating one of the significant expenses associated with starting their college courses.
