CodedFuture is dedicated to donating computers and various electronic equipment to needy schools and families. Donated equipment is repaired with students interested in the field. Unrepairable equipment is disposed of in the proper environmentally safe manner.
We work with donations of any electronic equipment, both new and old. Items you can donate include computers, fax machines, hubs, routers, monitors, etc. If you're not sure if we take something please . We then take this equipment and rebuild it with kids to help them learn about computers. We show them how to build them as well as how to operate them.
If the equipment can be rebuilt then it is fixed and donated to needy schools and families. All of our computers are loaded with free software. We only use operating systems that don't have to be purchased and licensed so those that receive them can obtain a truly FREE computer. We generally use Linux because of the community thats involved with it's development and maintenance.
If it is not repairable it is stripped down and disposed of through the proper channels. Some people don't know this, but in many states it is illegal to just throw you're computer away because they contain environmentally harmful materials such as lead.
The best thing is that it helps kids to learn a skill that is demanded in most job environments. You get back that extra space that's been taken up space for years while you have been thinking about what to do with that old piece of equipment in the corner. Any item donated is a tax write off.
