How Your Computer Donation Can Help Rebuild Lives After the LA Wildfires

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have left countless families grappling with the challenge of rebuilding their lives. For marginalized communities already facing systemic barriers, the lack of access to essential technology only deepens the struggle. Without a computer, opportunities for work, education, and connection remain out of reach for many families. Similarly, the devastating 2024 wildfires in New Mexico and the aftermath of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina have created significant challenges for affected communities, where recovery efforts are ongoing, and the need for technology is just as critical.

At Digitunity, we are committed to bridging this gap. For nearly 40 years, we’ve partnered with donors to advance digital inclusion, placing computers and other essential equipment with community organizations that are serving those in need. Now, in the wake of these devastating wildfires, your support is more critical than ever.

For families affected by natural disasters, having access to technology can mean the difference between falling behind and getting back on their feet.

 A computer is a lifeline that helps:

  • Families stay connected to critical resources
    and loved ones.
  • Students continue their education without interruption.
  • Job seekers access employment opportunities and essential services.

How You Can Help

Donating a computer is one of the most impactful ways to support these communities. Your gently used desktops, laptops, tablets, and accessories like keyboards and webcams are among the most needed items. By choosing to donate—rather than sell or recycle—you give these devices a second life, helping to transform lives in the process.

For Businesses and Individuals

Whether you’re an individual donor or a business looking to make a larger contribution, Digitunity makes the process simple.

  • For businesses: Our Corporate Concierge Service matches companies with qualified nonprofit refurbishers who securely prepare and distribute donated devices. This ensures a safe, compliant, and impactful donation process.
  • For individuals: Our technology donation platform guides you step by step, from finding a recipient organization to coordinating pick-up or delivery.

How Your Donation is Processed

Refurbishers play a critical role in ensuring your donation makes a lasting impact. When you donate, your device is sent to one of our qualified nonprofit refurbishers, who accept, refurbish, and prepare it for redistribution to those who need it most. Our easy-to-use donation platform ensures the process is simple, secure, and seamless—so you can focus on the difference you’re making.

By donating a computer, you create a lasting impact far beyond the device itself. Desktops, laptops, tablets, and accessories like mice, keyboards, and webcams are among the most needed items. Your donation can make a difference.
