| IND Launches "Dust to Diamonds" Technology Outreach Program
Helping Our Community Thrive, Through Technology, Passion and Drive!
Parsippany, NJ (February 19, 2007) – IND today announced the launch of its program to support local charities and non-profit organizations by providing free technology equipment that has been donated by corporate customers. IND will act as the facilitator of the connection and also offers data scrubbing services to the donating company.
Following best practice standards, corporations typically replace technology equipment within three years of purchase to ensure the highest level of performance, warranty coverage, and to remain competitive. Unfortunately in most cases, the equipment that is replaced is destroyed or thrown away, often at a “disposal cost” to the corporation. The substantial hidden value in that used equipment is then lost and ends up filling up a landfill. Consequently, millions of technology products are thrown away every year while thousands of non-profit organizations struggle along with aging equipment or do without computers entirely.
IND's Dust to Diamonds program recaptures the value of used technology equipment so that significant savings and benefits are realized by non-profit organizations, while at the same time decreasing the amount of usable technology equipment that needlessly goes to landfills.
As part of the program, IND reviews potential donations from donor organizations for placement at participating nonprofit organizations. IND also provides free pickup and delivery of equipment located in Northern New Jersey.
All technology equipment is considered for placement, including PCs, servers, firewalls, peripherals, infrastructure hardware and more. Please note software does not qualify for donation as software companies do not permit donation of their products.
To participate as a donor company or to apply as a recipient charity/non-profit organization, please contact IND at (800) 621-9774 Ext. GIVE (4483), or visit www.INDCorp.com/Diamonds/ for more information.
