E-Waste

UCLA and UCLA Health partner with Human-I-T for the donation of e-waste in order to create equitable access to technology and support for local communities. Human-I-T collects donated corporate technology, or e-waste, and re-furbishes and re-directs that technology within our local communities in need.

Before Donating, UCLA Health departments should:

Ensure approval is obtained by department and ISS for disposal for:

ISS Managed devices
Asset Managed devices that are UCLA Health property or exceeding $5,000
Items inventoried by Clinical Engineering

For other items, or once approval is received by department for donation of the above items, follow the e-waste donation process.
