Bridging the digital divide.

One laptop at a time.

Tech-Takeback Foundation exists to make technology accessible for everyone while preventing unnecessary e-waste. We give unwanted laptops a second life, placing them in the hands of people who need them most.

Our Mission:
  • Reduce e-waste

  • Promote digital equity

  • Empower disadvantaged individuals through sustainable redistribution of technology

Each laptop is refurbished and individually tailored with the right software and accessibility tools.

3: Reuse

Devices are donated free of charge to those who need them most.

Five Steps to Digital Inclusion

4: Training and support

Any tool is useless if you don't know how to use it.

We offer bespoke digital skills training to help each person gain the most from their new laptop. And if they don't have Internet access at home, we'll provide it.

5: Tracking and Reporting

We measure social and environmental impact for transparency and improvement.
