- Recycled materials can be used in playgrounds, medical equipment and more
- Donated tech can help bridge the digital divide
- Protects human health and reduces landfill waste

What Can I Recycle?
Anything with a plug, battery or cable can be recycled or reused. Look out for the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on your electricals — it’s a reminder not to throw them in your household waste.
- Household appliances, small or large
- Gadgets, toys, and tools
- Items with built-in batteries or cables
- Tech donations that can be reused
