Laptop Upcycle is a Montclair, NJ based division of HackNCraftNJ, Inc. committed to obtaining, refreshing, and distributing technology to students who need the tools to succeed in school. We believe all public school students should have access to the technology and hardware they need to learn regardless of their family's income level. Laptop Upcycle's mission is to eliminate technology impediments as a part of the achievement gap.​
What We Do 
  • Give computers (and WiFi) to local kids in need so they can do their homework or participate in remote learning
  • Teach local kids (and adults) to refurbish donated laptops. Volunteers learn technical skills and receive community service hours.
  • Repurpose laptops (and other tech) to keep it out of the waste stream and give it a new life
  • Partner with local nonprofits and like minded agencies to support those in need
  • Work with local schools and educators to connect those in need with the technology we provide
  • Promote and educate the community about our mission
​
How We Do It 
  • We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
  • We are made up of 100% volunteers, as is our Board of Directors.
  • We support a lab environment where we accept, test, renovate, stock, and distribute laptops (and other tech) from.
  • We work to establish and nourish relationships locally and outside town to fund and promote our operations.
  • We are passionate about our mission.
