How 7 'retired' laptops reached 26 children and young people
At CROPLAND, we help organisations make smarter decisions with AI and data every day. But responsible business doesn't stop at innovation, it also starts with how you treat what you already have.
That's why we donated our retired laptops to Digital for Youth, an organisation that gives IT equipment a second life within youth projects.
The result:
🔹 7 laptops got a second life
🔹 4 of them, top-grade quality, were equipped with Windows 11 and deployed in youth projects
🔹 Together, we reached 26 young people
🔹 And avoided 2 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent, 79m² of land use and 0.4kg of conflict minerals
"As an organisation that helps businesses make smarter decisions based on data, it made sense for us to handle our own resources responsibly too. This donation is a small step, but one with concrete impact for 26 young people."
Many thanks to Digital for Youth for the great collaboration and transparent reporting.
