How Stopwaste.org has helped

Slide 9

Since we began, we have refurbished and placed over 35,000 computers in Oakland schools, after school labs and homes.

For the past 10 years, Stopwaste.org has supported

  • us. During this time, we have refurbished over 400

tons of e-waste and recycled another 400 tons. More school districts are looking at “1-1 around the clock” as an alternative to “1 laptop per child”
