Introduction
Hello and welcome to the Donate by Mail blog! We are excited to share our journey with you as we work towards empowering veterans through technology. If you're new here, this post will serve as a primer on who we are, what we do, and why it matters.
Who We Are
Donate by Mail is a non-profit organization with a straightforward yet impactful mission: to provide veterans with the technological tools they need to succeed in today's digital world. We collect unused tech devices like laptops, smartphones, and tablets, refurbish them, and distribute them to veterans in need.
Why Technology?
In our increasingly digital society, having access to technology is not a luxury; it's a necessity. Whether it's searching for a job, attending school, or accessing healthcare services, technology plays a crucial role. However, many veterans face barriers to accessing these essential digital tools. That's where Donate by Mail comes in.
How It Works
It's simple:
Collection: Drop your unused tech devices in one of our secure donation boxes, located in community centers and partner locations like Tacos4Life restaurants.
Processing: We ensure all donated devices are thoroughly cleaned, evaluated, and refurbished.
Distribution: The ready-to-use devices are then distributed to veterans, complete with educational resources to help them maximize their new tools.
Our Partnerships
We're thrilled to be partnering with like-minded organizations and businesses that share our passion for community service. A special shoutout to Tacos4Life for hosting our donation boxes and aligning with our mission to create meaningful change.

There are numerous ways you can contribute to our cause:
