London, United Kingdom – This spring, SocialBox.Biz, a UK-based social enterprise, is urging companies to participate in their MacBook and laptop reuse campaign. For the past ten years, SocialBox.Biz has been providing functional MacBooks and laptops to vulnerable individuals such as the homeless, refugees, and the elderly, who would otherwise not have access to such technology.
The beneficiaries of this initiative have shared inspiring stories of how receiving a donated MacBook or laptop has positively impacted their lives. One individual, a victim of modern-day slavery, used a donated MacBook Air to kickstart their career as a DJ.
According to the SocialBox.Biz team, “Every old MacBook sitting in a corporate storage room is an opportunity to change a life and protect the planet. Our Spring Clean campaign makes it easy for companies to declutter, meet social impact targets, and create a lasting social impact. We are calling on businesses in London to take action now.”
By placing emphasis on reuse rather than corporate recycling of old macbooks and other IT hardware, SocialBox.Biz helps companies reduce Scope 3 emissions and waste. Donating also increases community engagement and can have a positive impact on share prices. SocialBox.Biz ensures the secure wiping of data and offers flexible donation options, from parcel labels for small collections to UK-wide pickups for larger ones.
Since its inception, SocialBox.Biz has partnered with major companies and organizations, reaching milestones such as their 1000th laptop handover in 2020. The organization is now expanding its efforts to achieve ambitious goals by 2030, with the aim of providing essential access to computers and promoting sustainability.
In honor of Earth Day 2025, SocialBox.Biz recently hosted events to encourage donations. To learn more about their initiative, visit https://www.socialbox.biz/.
