Connecting surplus computing equipment with volunteers for open source upgrades and subsequent donation to individuals or charities.
Your listing will be linked to a unique anonymous code for matching in our social media groups (e.g., WhatsApp). Please maintain your anonymity by not sharing personal contact details here. All further communication happens privately between matched parties.
Do you have a physically functional laptop or mini PC that is currently unusable, often because its proprietary Windows or Mac OS is no longer supported or upgradable? We invite you to list it here to connect with volunteers who can upgrade it with a free open source operating system like Ubuntu, XFCE, or FreeBSD.
We will not warehouse, stock or deliver machines. Volunteers will need to hold them in their own home so ancillary equipment (Screens, keyboards etc.) large devices are generally excluded. Small devices and power block only!. Not Phones or Pads.
Volunteers who can upgrade and refurbish equipment, please register your capabilities, geographic area, and delivery/collection preferences here.
Provide anonymous locations such as charity shops or community centers that can serve as equipment exchange points.
Participants who wish to be identified may provide their details and we will manually list them on the web site and associate them with their unique code. Paid sponsors may advertise here to help cover costs for parts and freight.
