SOCIALBOX.BIZ | UNIVERSITY OF SURREY ANNOUNCES LONG-TERM SUSTAINABLE PARTICIPATION IN LAPTOPS FOR HOMELESS INITIATIVE

Thursday 8 April, 2021


The team at SocialBox.Biz is thrilled to announce an ongoing partnership with the University of Surrey. This partnership means that the University of Surrey is onboard to participate in the Laptops for Homeless Initiative for the long term. Through the partnership, Guildford’s homeless and other vulnerable populations will receive tech such as laptops and desktops as part of the Laptops for Homeless Initiative.




The initiative works to upcycle used but functioning tech in order to help reduce digital exclusion among vulnerable populations. Organisations who partner with SocialBox.Biz commit to ongoing and sustainable donations. The University of Surrey is pleased to lead the charge by joining the Laptops for Homeless Initiative, and other organisations can take part, too.




Laptop handovers are memorable occasions in which partners can see just how their donations are helping the community. An upcoming delivery to Guildford Surrey’s Real Change Guildford is scheduled. The University of Surrey has been campaigning for and advertising their donation drive:
