SocialBox.Biz is now urging large organizations to donate old Tech, including Apple Laptops and products - MacBooks, iPhones, iMacs and iPads... SocialBox.Biz, a social technology venture community interest company that manages the ‘Laptops for the Homeless, Elderly, and Refugee’ initiative, recently announced they are also accepting all old Apple laptops and products as part of their campaign such as MacBooks, iPhones, iMac and iPads By obtaining the tech, wiping the servers, and placing it into accommodation services for the homeless and vulnerable, SocialBox.Biz is helping people everywhere get a new start and join the digital world of 2021.

“People need to be able to access the internet if they want to rebuild their lives, find friends, and apply for jobs today,” said the team at SocialBox.Biz. “Digital inclusion will be critical around the world moving forward. We are urging all large organizations to donate their unneeded Apple (and non-Apple products) to our initiative.”

SocialBox.Biz works with UK companies, schools, universities, councils, and other organizations for their initiative. “Together, we can change the reality of homelessness in the UK and beyond,” said the team at SocialBox.Biz

Ryan Gandola, senior consultant at SocialBox.Biz said,“This initiative will also help students from schools, colleges and universities learn more about social impact, reuse, rehoming of items, and sustainability and fulfill their social contract at the same time while also helping institutions solve Climate Change Act obligations. SocialBox.Biz is always available to deliver its digital inclusion services and support the local community which is also reducing Scope 3 emissions at the same time due to its local focus.”

“At SocialBox.Biz, we remove data from old but still useful tech using top security toold and load it with open source software. This open source software includes a variety of things, ranging from an OS such as Linux to open source applications for word processing and more. This keeps the costs as low as possible for all involved and helps make our initiative a success. After all, most of the clients from charities we work with can’t afford the cost of a computer at all.” Added Ryan Gandola from SocialBox.Biz

Reusing old tech also emphasizes the importance of sustainability and extending the lifespan of technology to reduce waste in the future. Schools can showcase sustainable credentials and also receive green awards for their commitment to the environment by getting involved in the SocialBox.Biz initiative. This is a great opportunity for UK schools to attract recognition, awards, and new students, as well as provide an educational opportunity to teach young people about the power of giving back. Commented the team at SocialBox.Biz community interest company.

Many of the donated tech items received by SocialBox.BIz are Apple products like Imac, Ipads and Macbooks but many more items are needed to meet demand….

SocialBox recently tweeted:

Old MacBooks, when donated instead of recycled, open a lot of doors for refugees and homeless persons who are looking to be self-sufficient. Is your UK school or college replacing your organization's computers...
