Students collaborate with Facility Services and UTS to donate technology
Students from a third-year Academic Sustainability Program course are collaborating with McMaster’s Facility Services and University Technology Services (UTS) to coordinate ACCESS Tech, a reuse technology donation event taking place on Friday, October 22nd. Empowerment Squared, a local charitable organization that empowers newcomer, racialized, and marginalized communities with the tools and opportunities to thrive, will distribute the donated technology to local families. Not only does this event support Hamiltonians in need, donating used technology instead of sending it to landfill is environmentally sustainable.
McMaster students, faculty members and staff are invited to drop off used technology like computers, laptops and mobile devices to help Hamiltonians in need at the ACCESS Tech IT reuse drive, a donation event from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday, October 22 in the tent in front of Burke Science Building.
McMaster community members can also drive up to the receiving bay at the Campus Services Building in west campus and drop off used technology for donation during the tech drive hours: 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday Oct. 22.
