2nd Life Tech: Refurbishing Devices for Community

Second Life Tech is a circular, community-first project that takes donated technology and gives it a new purpose. We collect laptops, desktops, tablets, and accessories that would otherwise go to landfill, then refurbish them to professional standards and redistribute them to people and organisations doing it tough.

Our recipients include low-income families, schools with high FOEI scores, First Nations communities, women’s shelters, and newly arrived migrants or refugees. Many of these groups are digitally excluded — they don’t have access to devices for education, employment, or even basic communication.

With this project, we’re not just handing out laptops. We securely erase data, repair and test every device, then match it with someone who truly needs it. We also provide basic setup and ongoing support where needed.

Your funding will directly power the refurb process — parts, tools, logistics, and volunteer coordination — helping us breathe life back into hundreds of devices and get them into the hands of people who need them most.

This is sustainable, practical, and deeply human work. One device can change a life — and with your help, we’ll change many.
