How Can I Donate?
As a service to the community, Reuseum Educational Inc. provides a convenient location for individuals to drop off their used, sort of working, or non functional technology and e-scrap for reuse and recycling. Material donations may be new, old, or even outdated. We’ll either refurbish them to sell, use them in our workshops and outreach, dismantle them for parts and/or recycle them responsibly. Businesses, institutions, and individuals are all invited to participate.
As a registered 501(c)(3), Reuseum Educational Inc. can provide donation receipts for both consumer and business donations. Reuseum Educational Inc. provides workshops, materials, and expertise in the support of scientific and technology education.
