Sustainability Charity Partner for Businesses

Computer Aid International is a sustainability charity partner for businesses across the UK and Europe, turning pre-loved IT equipment into measurable environmental and social impact. We refurbish your donated devices and place them with schools, NGOs, and community organisations, giving you board-ready numbers for your ESG reporting and CSR commitments. 

We work with corporates across the UK, Spain, Germany, France, Portugal, and Italy. If your company is shaping its sustainability strategy, tightening its ESG reporting, or looking for a credible charity partner to back its impact claims, you are in the right place.

Who we work with 

Our partners are corporates and organisations with real ESG targets to hit and real IT equipment to rehome. We typically work with: 

• IT managers decommissioning laptops, desktops, servers, and networking kit 

• CSR and sustainability teams looking for credible reporting material 

• Procurement and finance officers planning circular IT refresh cycles 

• CFOs and heads of ESG reporting who need audit-ready impact data 

• Businesses across the UK and wealthier European markets with multi-site IT estates 

What your business can do with Computer Aid 

There is no single route to partner with us. Most corporate donors combine two or three of the following: 

• Donate used laptops, desktops, and networking equipment through our IT-Entsorgung programme, with secure data wiping and full chain-of-custody reporting 

• Sponsor a project in a specific country, school, or community to tie your funding to a measurable outcome 

• Run an employee Spenden sammeln campaign that plugs into your existing engagement and volunteering programmes 

• Make a direct financial contribution through uns finanzieren to support refurbishment, logistics, and training 

• Spenden Sie at any scale, from one-off gifts to multi-year CSR commitments 

Every route comes with reporting material you can use in your annual ESG disclosure, investor statements, or CSR report.

• Governance credibility from a UK-registered charity with long-standing transparent reporting 

• A verified partner your audit, investor, and board teams will recognise
