Board:
 
a) Notes the contents of this report.

devices for reuse in the local community. It is anticipated that
the exact number of devices donated will be determined by the
number of devices deemed viable for reuse, by demand and by the
ability to distribute effectively.
c) Approves the proposal to make ‘The
Making Rooms’ our primary delivery partner, alongside other
partners that have the sufficient infrastructure in place to
support redistribution to benefit local communities.
d) Approves the proposal to recycle laptop
devices that are not donated.

end-of-life devices through the same channels.
