Our TechRefresh program breathes new life into recycling computers and other technologies. In partnership with Cascade Asset Management and area businesses, we collect, ‘refresh’ and donate the equipment non-profit groups, schools, libraries and a variety of local groups who are also focusing on addressing the digital access gap.
How the program works
- Cascade wipes the equipment clean in order to prepare it for new life.
- We distribute the equipment, free of charge, to non-profit groups across our service area.
