Over 150 lives were changed, thanks to the collaboration of Computers 4 People, Dvine KoneKtion, 123 Recycling—and a $10K donation from AT&T to support refurbishments and operations. Here’s how it worked: 123 Recycling donated the devices, Computers 4 People refurbished each one to optimal condition, Dvine KoneKtion identified those most in need of tech access, and on November 2nd, these three organizations came together to distribute the laptops. From college students writing essays on their phones, to single parents juggling work and library schedules for their kids, to seniors finally accessing telehealth—these are just some of the stories we witnessed firsthand. Thank you DVINE KONEKTION COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INC , @123Recycling , and AT&T Business for joining us in this journey of digital equity for all! In this season of giving, consider the impact of technology: a single device can change the course of a life. Whether you donate a device or support us financially, your donation will have a tremendous impact on someone in need. https://lnkd.in/e7HpQEQD Tania Fuentes #DigitaInclusion #DigitalEquity #DonateComputers #CommunityCollaboration

One donation is all it takes. Recently, a donated laptop was refurbished and given to Katherine, a mother of two who has been struggling to juggle work, studying, and caring for her toddlers. “But, it’s a lot you know.” Katherine dreams of starting her own business in the US—something she successfully did back in her home country—so she can have the flexibility to earn an income while also taking care of her kids and continuing her studies. For Katherine, this laptop represents another chance to pursue her entrepreneurial dreams and the opportunity to be both a dedicated mom and a thriving business owner. As we continue to empower individuals like Katherine, your support is essential. This Giving Tuesday (Dec 3rd), consider donating—Facebook’s match will make your gift go even further to create more opportunities for those in need. https://rebrand.ly/C4PGT #DigitalInclusion #DigitalEquity #SuccessStories #ImpactStories #GivingTuesday

Did you know that November is National Recycling Month? Recycle your tech and help us change a life! Every year, 6.9 million tons of e-waste are generated in the U.S., according to USPIRG Education Fund. Much of this waste still holds the potential to help people, like Jysaiah, a 19-year-old studying business management. Jysaiah is currently pursuing his associate degree and hopes to continue on to his bachelor’s. However, he has faced challenges that have made it difficult for him to complete his schoolwork and seize opportunities. Often on the road or commuting, he has had to rely on his phone or home desktop to do assignments, leaving him without the flexibility he needs to succeed. Thanks to the generous donation and recycling of someone’s unused device, Jysaiah is now one step closer to his goal. We were able to provide him with a refurbished laptop, giving him the freedom to study and complete his homework wherever he is. YOU can help create more stories like Jysaiah’s. If you or your company have unused tech, consider recycling it by donating it to Computers 4 People. We will ensure it reaches someone in need, transforming their future with your help. https://lnkd.in/en8uydZY
