We Solve Two Big Problems

The Digital Divide

Over 150 million Americans lack access to a personal computer, internet connection, or both. This lack of access to digital technology creates a significant gap between the opportunities unconnected people can access and the ones digitally native households can. This gap in opportunities is known as the digital divide, and it’s our mission to shrink it because we believe that equitable access to information and technology empowers people to achieve their fullest potential.

E-waste

Electronic waste, or e-waste, refers to electronic products and components that are unwanted, unusable, or nearing the end of their useful life. While e-waste only makes up 2% of the mass in landfills, it accounts for 70% of toxic waste. Unfortunately, recycling is no longer a sufficient method for disposing waste sustainably; given the scale of the climate crisis, reuse is now a prerequisite for protecting the planet.

One Simple Solution

Reducing e-waste and shrinking the digital divide actually go hand-in-hand. Instead of letting unwanted electronics contaminate our environment, we refurbish and refresh donated devices before distributing them to local communities through targeted programs and initiatives. We also make the devices available through our low-cost store that’s accessible to eligible individuals across the country—creating more equitable access to the technology our neighbors need to thrive.

By pairing these devices with low-cost internet connections, digital training, and 1-1 technical support, we’re ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to unlock their full potential through digital technology. That means more students can confidently do their homework and achieve an education, seniors can easily access healthcare services, working parents can find and train for new employment opportunities, and so much more – all while protecting the planet from e-waste.
