The "Call Before You Scrap It" campaign
As part of its mission, SocialBox.Biz runs the "Call Before You Scrap It" campaign, urging businesses to contact them first to assess reusable tech before automatically recycling it. This ensures that usable equipment doesn't end up as waste when it can still serve a purpose.
“This is better than recycling and IT disposal,” said the team at SocialBox.Biz. “We are supporting computer access inclusion for disadvantaged groups. From setting up computer labs to our IT career scholarship, we are the only social enterprise organisation that
helps other organisations meet their emissions goals in this most impactful way”
Organisations can turn the growing problem of old tech into positive impact stories with SocialBox.Biz as a partner for donating these computers and other IT hardware on an ongoing basis.
Some of the suitable hardware is rehomed to empower disadvantaged people in the London community such as City of Westminster and Camden in Central London and beyond, helping people experiencing homelessness who are moving into employment and work , and older adults on
small income unable to afford computers hardware or software.
For those who lack basic computer access, the SocialBox.Biz program works with partner charities in the City of Westminster, City of London, London Borough of Camden such as the Age UK Westminster, Age UK City of London, Age UK Islington, Age UK London, The Passage, C4WS homeless project charity and others to help with computers disadvantaged
people in need for education, job finding, and communication. This technology is a crucial lifeline for many. Donated machines are wiped and upgraded with open source software to
ensure data privacy and usability.
As the Windows 10 phase-out occurs, organisations everywhere are making IT changes. SocialBox.Biz urges these organisations to consider donating their old tech instead of discarding it and IT disposal. Not only will they be helping those in need, but they will be helping the environment and promoting stewardship in the community. Learn more now, including how
