Last week, we teamed up with our partner United Way to deliver 100 refurbished laptops to The Missing Peace Community Collective in Milwaukee's Washington Park neighborhood.

The Missing Peace is dedicated to serving, inspiring, and connecting the community through partnerships that help people thrive. We're grateful for the opportunity to support that mission by helping expand access to technology for the people they serve.

Thank you to United Way and The Missing Peace for your partnership and for the incredible work you're doing to strengthen our community. We're honored to play a small part.

Last weekend, we partnered with United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County and Raising Our Village for a community picnic where 100 refurbished laptops found new homes with local families.

Days like this remind us that the best work happens together. Thank you to United Way, Raising Our Village, and everyone who gave their time and energy to make the day so special. We loved being part of it.

Another Summerfest Tech is in the books, and we're heading home with two full bins of donated laptops, monitors, phones, cables, and other electronics that will be securely refurbished or responsibly recycled.

A huge thank you to the team at the Westin Hotels & Resorts Milwaukee, and especially to Lena DeLaet and her incredible team at Summerfest TechAI. Your energy and passion create an event that brings together one of the Midwest's most engaged technology communities.

We enjoyed reconnecting with old friends, meeting new ones, and having meaningful conversations about sustainability, responsible technology management, and reducing e-waste.

To everyone who stopped by our collection station, donated equipment, shared your organization's challenges, or simply took a moment to say hello, thank you. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you again next year.

We’re excited and grateful to partner with Data Holdings Data Center Milwaukee’s premier data center, to help advance more sustainable technology practices across our community.

Data Holdings understands that responsible stewardship goes beyond infrastructure. By partnering with Digital Bridge, they’re helping ensure retired technology can be reused, recycled responsibly, and redirected toward creating greater digital access for those who need it most.

We’re proud to work alongside organizations that are committed to making a meaningful impact in Milwaukee and beyond.

We’re proud to share that Digital Bridge has been awarded a $30,000 grant through the Wisconsin Public Service Commission’s Nonprofit Access Program to help expand equitable digital access in Milwaukee.

This support will help connect more individuals and households to the technology they need to access education, employment, healthcare, and essential online services, while continuing to keep valuable electronics out of landfills through responsible reuse.

Thank you to Gov. Tony Evers and the PSC for supporting this important work.

Some partnerships create impact far beyond technology.

Thanks to support from the Associated Bank Foundation, we recently helped provide laptops to Black Business Enterprises in Minneapolis, helping expand access to opportunity for entrepreneurs, families and community members who need it most.

As Executive Director Nancy Korsah shared:

“For many of the families and entrepreneurs we serve, access to technology means the ability to apply for jobs, complete training programs, grow their businesses, and simply have more opportunity at their fingertips. This gift creates real mobility.”

We’re grateful to work alongside organizations like Black Business Enterprises and the Associated Bank Foundation that understand access to technology is about more than devices. It’s about economic opportunity, empowerment and connection.

Together, we’re helping ensure technology fuels access, not landfills.

When organizations retire technology, the risk does not disappear with the device.

Data security, regulatory compliance, and chain of custody all remain critical considerations. Digital Bridge is NAID AAA Certified, ensuring every device is handled, sanitized, and processed according to the highest industry standards.

Secure IT asset disposition is not just about removal. It is about protection, accountability, and trust. Want to know more? Send us a DM or email [email protected]

In honor of Earth Day, we were on site at Hydrite today, enjoying the sunshine and working alongside their team to fill more than two bins with e-waste.

Thank you to Dave Schilz, IT End User Support Manager, for the tour and for sharing how sustainability is embedded in Hydrite's operations.

This is one of several employee e-waste drives happening across Wisconsin this month. We are incredibly grateful for our partners who continue to show up.

Happy Earth Day! And thank you, Hydrite!
