- Helps others. Donating your used electronics benefits others by passing on ready-to-use or refurbished equipment to those who need it.
- Conserves natural resources. Recycling recovers valuable materials from electronics that can be used to make new products. As a result, we reduce pollution and save energy by extracting fewer raw materials from the earth.
