Compudopt

Compudopt We are a national nonprofit that empowers communities through technology access and education.

Compudopt is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization founded in Houston, Texas in 2007, on the belief that every child deserves equal access to education and opportunity. Our mission is to provide technology access and education to underserved youth. The idea for Compudopt began with our founder and president John Osha, who realized that the life cycle of computers in corporate environment is typically l

ess than three years. When they no longer meet the needs of corporate teams, they are usually shelved, stuck in a closet, or sent to a landfill. But these lightly used tools can be a dream come true for young learners who lack access to a computer at home and are ready to broaden their skills and knowledge. As Compudopt’s first educational offering, we began refurbishing used computers, loading them with free educational software, and distributing them to children in underserved communities across the Houston area. Over the past thirteen years, Compudopt has distributed over 48,688+ refurbished computers to young people and added opportunities for students to learn that expand our impact beyond computer distribution to include technology education.

Thanks to your support during Earth Month, we kept 2,246 devices, including laptops, desktops, and peripherals, out of landfills this April! 🌎

However, our efforts don't stop because Earth Month is over. You can recycle with us all year-long!

Together with AT&T & Micro Center, we’re keeping devices out of landfills and giving tech a second life, and empowering communities by getting them access to technology.

🎓👋 Meet Jennifer!

She is working toward becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant through her high school’s Career and Technical Education program.

Without a computer at home, keeping up with schoolwork was a challenge.

Thanks to Compudopt’s Gifts for Grads program, she now has a computer. Jennifer shared, "This computer will help me achieve my goals."

After graduation, she plans to earn her nursing degree with hopes of being commissioned as a nurse in the United States Army.

Providing access to reliable internet in communities creates a ripple effect of impact nationwide.

We had a fantastic time hosting the EY US team at our Downers Grove warehouse recently!

Volunteers rolled up their sleeves and jumped right into the heart of our operations, helping us process and prepare technology for community members in need.

This past March, a dedicated team of four volunteers from Hewlett Packard Enterprise joined us at our Houston office to put their leadership and engineering skills to work.

The team selected Compudopt for their leadership project, designing and hand-building a custom transport cart that is a major efficiency boost for us! It allows us to seamlessly transport devices between the warehouse and the lab, helping us get refurbished technology into the hands of students even faster.

Thank you to the HPE team for your creativity, your hard work, and your commitment to our mission! 💙
