Recycle Your IT Equipment with us

The Teacher in a Box team turns donated computers into TIB servers for use in libraries and schools in developing countries all around the world. Laptops released during the past 8 years are generally suitable for this purpose.

We take data security very seriously. As part of our service we use the highly recognised Active @ KillDisk to securely erase the data on all donated computers and generate certified Erasure Reports.

Whether you are an individual, business or organisation please consider donating your used IT equipment to us. By recycling your computers with us you can rest assured that it will find a good home.

IT Managers – We are happy to discuss any special requirements that you may have to meet the standards set by NIST 800-88 REV 1 and can offer several ways for you to receive your Erasure reports in bulk to make the management easier for you.

Donate

All donations will be greatly appreciated and used to further the expansion of Teacher in a Box servers into communities that meet the criteria. Allocations will be determined by the Rotary Club of Paddington (Qld).

Donations through RAWCs are tax deductable.
