- Tim’s Message: “I started this company in my garage and have now outgrown a third building. We have been working hard to get our message out, and it’s great to see people wanting to help! A lot of people are not aware of the damage e-waste has done and continues to do to our environment. We are thankful for all your support in working towards a brighter and greener future! Since the pandemic started and many schools have gone virtual or given that option, many students don’t have the luxury of a home computer. This is where you can help out in more ways than one! We are excited for all we have accomplished and cannot wait to see what the future holds!”
