Making a Difference Together

Electronic waste is a growing global problem. According to the United Nations, in 2023, 61.3 million tons of electronic waste were added worldwide. This amount of e-waste is heavier than the Great Wall of China. Additionally, e-waste contains valuable materials like gold, silver, and copper worth over $57 billion, more than the GDP of most countries, yet only 17.4% of it is properly recycled. The rest often ends up in landfills, causing severe environmental damage.

Environmental Impact

By recycling electronics responsibly, we help reduce the amount of e-waste that ends up in landfills. Proper recycling prevents harmful substances found in electronics, such as lead and mercury, from polluting our soil and water. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that recycling one million laptops saves the energy equivalent to the electricity used by over 3,500 US homes in a year. Our efforts contribute to a cleaner, healthier planet for future generations.

Community Support

Our refurbishment and donation initiatives are at the heart of our social impact efforts. We donate refurbished electronics to local charities and individuals in need, helping to bridge the digital divide and support underprivileged communities. By extending the life of these devices, we provide valuable resources to those who might not have access to the latest technology. This initiative not only promotes sustainability but also fosters social good.
