Your donations go a long way in supporting <a href=\"https:\/\/idleengineers.com\/why\/mission\/\">our mission<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>How Your Donation Helps<\/h4>\n<p>For many years, we've <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Upcycling#Upcycling_in_industry\">upclycled<\/a> old computers, monitors, phones, servers, etc. We take old equipment (often left over from a recent upgrade) and refurbish it for re-use. Here are a few examples of donated equipment getting put to good use:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Old laptops are cleaned; given a fresh battery; installed with the latest Linux; and given to someone in need of a laptop.<\/li>\n<li>Spare computer components are combined to create functional workstations, shared with those in need of a computer.<\/li>\n<li>Discarded server components are used to upgrade existing servers or expand our public hosting capacity. Our first <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zabbix.com\/\">Zabbix<\/a> server was built using donated equipment and was a huge help in monitoring our public facing servers!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>What We're Looking For<\/h4>\n<p>We're happy to receive most any kind of hardware donation; please use the form to let us know what you have. Here are some examples of particular interest:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Computers, laptops, monitors, peripherals, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Discrete components, ICs, wires (resistors, capacitors, power regulators, MOSFETs, sensors, motors, etc); as long as it's labeled so we can look up documentation.<\/li>\n<li>Bench-top equipment and other tools; after all, we are an engineering company and can always find use for an oscilloscope, power supply, function generator, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First things first, thank you for your interest in donating equipment!
