Your organization is responsible for securely removing all data before the equipment is donated. Please erase all data from every device according to your organization’s data-security standards. We recommend a full disk wipe consistent with NIST 800-88 guidelines or an appropriate factory reset that securely clears the drive.

Please leave the working storage drive installed so the laptop is ready to be prepared for student use. We are not responsible for removing or recovering data left on donated devices, so please ensure all organizational and personal information has been securely removed before the laptops leave your office.

Laptop donations may be tax deductible, depending on your organization’s circumstances and applicable tax regulations. We can provide a donation acknowledgment for qualifying contributions. Please consult your tax advisor regarding the deductibility and valuation of your donation.

We carefully assess every device we receive. Equipment that meets our program requirements is prepared for use by students. When possible, equipment that does not meet our requirements may be redirected for responsible recycling or other appropriate reuse.

Donated laptops are loaned to students participating in Avasant Foundation programs who need access to a computer for their coursework and learning. Providing a reliable device helps students participate fully in class, complete assignments, build digital skills, and prepare for opportunities in the digital economy.

Absolutely. We welcome donations collected from multiple offices or locations. If you are coordinating a larger or multi-location donation, please contact us so we can help streamline the process.

Absolutely. Every laptop makes a difference. A small donation can provide students with the technology they need to participate in class and complete their learning. Whether you have one laptop or a large batch, your contribution helps expand access to digital education and opportunity.
