Reserve Your Spot

Bring your old laptops to donate!
Did you know that roughly 220 million tons of old computers and other tech hardware are trashed in the United States every year? And 50% of those computers are still in good working order. What if each of those computers ended up not in a landfill, but in the hands of someone in the world who needed one?

Join Globetops in making the unused, usable again. Bring your old laptops to the panel to donate directly to Globetops. A Globetops representative will be on hand to take your used devices off your hands and provide more information on their mission.
