In order to close the digital divide and provide free computers in our community, Tech Exchange operates a warehouse in Oakland, CA where we refurbish thousands of devices every year. Our staff and paid interns collect almost 100 tons of e-waste annually, then meticulously restore it, turning trash into treasure for our computer recipients.

Some devices require high-security attention, so our team physically destroys their old hard drives using a vise-like machine. Data destruction is a painstaking process, and our staff currently records certification information manually.

To improve this process, Tech Exchange must purchase an essential piece of equipment—the PD-5 Ironclad— that will make data destruction more efficient and compliant. Your gift will support our warehouse operations and allow us to refurbish more high-quality computers to distribute in the community.
