In a world where technology drives opportunity, too many communities are still left behind—simply because they lack access to basic digital tools. But what if your surplus tech—those old laptops sitting in storage—could become the spark that ignites change?
At Heartfelt IT, we believe in technology as a force for good. Our program empowers organizations and individuals to donate used laptops and surplus tech so they can be refurbished, repurposed, and redistributed to nonprofits and under-resourced communities across Canada.
This isn’t just about recycling old electronics—it’s about creating access, enabling education, and driving digital inclusion.
Every year, businesses upgrade their IT infrastructure, leaving functional computers, monitors, and laptops unused. While these devices might no longer meet the speed or security requirements of your business, they’re often more than capable of serving someone else’s needs.
Imagine a local youth centre using your donated laptops to run after-school coding classes. Or a nonprofit empowering immigrants and refugees with digital literacy training. That’s the kind of real-world impact your surplus tech can make.
Donating tech is not only an ethical e-waste solution, but a high-impact way to support social good.
Our mission is simple: to bridge the digital divide by making technology accessible to everyone—especially in the nonprofit sector. Here’s how our surplus tech donation program works:
According to Statistics Canada, more than 10% of households lack access to a computer at home—a number that’s even higher among Indigenous communities and low-income households. This creates barriers to education, employment, and essential services.
By donating your used laptops, you’re helping close this gap and promote digital equity.
Technology shouldn’t be a luxury. It should be a lifeline—one that provides access to information, virtual healthcare, job training, and community connection.
Your contribution helps more than just one person. It supports:
These are not just devices—they’re tools of empowerment.
In Canada, hundreds of thousands of computers are discarded each year. Most end up in landfills, creating environmental hazards and contributing to the global e-waste crisis.
By partnering with Heartfelt IT, you’re not only supporting sustainable tech practices, but also reducing waste and extending the lifecycle of your devices.
It’s a win-win: good for the planet, great for the community.
Whether you're a business upgrading your hardware or a household with an extra laptop, your donation can make a measurable difference.
Your surplus tech holds more than outdated software or dust—it holds potential. The potential to educate, empower, and transform lives. At Heartfelt IT, we help turn your old devices into new opportunities for communities that need them most.
Because when we rethink what we throw away, we can rebuild a more connected and equitable future.
If you’re asking, “What can I do with old laptops or surplus IT equipment?”—the answer is simple:
Donate them. Empower someone. Change your community.
