2025 Impact

With community support, we:

-  Reached more than 200 people through free digital skills classes and public events

-  Collected over 7,000 pounds of electronics for free recycling and refurbishment

-  Delivered 10 free technology workshops for nonprofits and adults in Olympia

-  Met with over 20 nonprofits to provide hands-on technology support so they could better serve their communities

-  Earned strong participant feedback: 94% of attendees said they were “very likely” to attend another digital skills class with us

The Ask

Next year, we want to reach even more people and support even more nonprofits. We plan to bring classes to new locations, give away more refurbished computers, and expand our tech support for local organizations doing essential community work.

We’re asking for donations to help make that growth possible. Your support enables us to reach more participants, put more devices into the hands of people who need them, and ensure nonprofits get the technology help they need to focus on their missions.

Your Donation

Your contribution directly supports projects like:

Free Computers for People in Need

We refurbish and repair donated laptops so we can provide free computers to people in Olympia who need them.

Digital Skills Training

We go into low-income housing communities and libraries to teach basic computer skills so people can use their devices with confidence

Tech Support for Nonprofits

Nonprofits have enough challenges: technology shouldn't be one of them. We support nonprofits so they can realize their mission without technical impediments. 

Electronics Recycling & Refurbishment

We accept donated electronics at no cost. If we can fix them, we put them back into use. If not, we recycle them responsibly.
