Open Source Recycling is a non-profit organization located in Charlottesville, VA. They provide free computer hardware and education to the community through the use of open source software. Owning a computer is a necessity in our society today, but new computers are expensive, and many people can not afford one. At the same time, thousands of perfectly good computers are discarded every day as people upgrade to newer models.

That’s where Open Source Recycling comes in. When people donate their used computer systems to us, We erase the hard drive, replace any broken components, install a new operating system, and then give the machine to someone without a computer. We feel that reuse is the best form of recycling, but if something donated to us is completely broken, we recycle it properly so that it won’t end up in a land fill, and the raw materials it is made of will be reclaimed.
