πŸ› οΈ Unveiling the RAD Magic: How It Works! 🌟

Welcome to the backstage of the Recycle A Device (RAD) machine! Are you wondering how we turn old laptops into tech taonga? Let's pull back the curtain and reveal the RAD magic in action.

The Grand Entrance: Donations! 🎁

It all begins with the star of the show – your donated laptops! Organisations and generous individuals like you bring these used tech gems to RAD, saving them from the e-waste abyss. Each device is secured and sanitized by our friends at Entelar to keep everyone's information safe. It feels like a rescue mission for laptops!

Tech Wizardry: Rangatahi Training! πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ

Now, cue the magic training ground. We enlist the help of Remojo Tech to train rangatahi (young minds) and teach them the enchanting art of refurbishing laptops. These tech apprentices become RAD heroes, mastering the skills needed to breathe new life into each device and get a peek into the tech world in the process.

The RAD Club Party! πŸŽ‰

Enter the RAD Club – a community-driven kaupapa where learners become leaders. As part of the club, rangatahi not only hone their teamwork and problem-solving skills but actively contribute to positive community outcomes and refine their STEM skills. It's more than tech; it's a celebration of social empowerment!

Transformation Complete: Laptop Gifting! 🌈

After the makeover, these rejuvenated laptops are ready to find new homes. We partner with schools and community organisations, gifting these devices to individuals and whānau who need them most and supporting them towards digital excellence. It's not just about technology; it's a gift of opportunity to participate in all areas of our digital life.

Environmental Encore: E-Waste Diversion! 🌿

But the show doesn't end there! RAD is also an environmental champion. By refurbishing laptops, we divert them from waste streams and landfills, reducing environmental harm and extending the lifespan of these devices. When a device can’t be refurbished we use any viable parts to support another device reducing the need for new parts! What’s not to love?


There you have it! ✨

A closer look at the RAD kaupapa from start to finish! Are you ready to join in the magic? Let's make digital dreams come true together! Whether you're donating, learning or receiving a laptop, you're an essential part of this enchanted journey!
