Empowering People Through Technology, Protecting the Planet
We provide free computers, tech training, and support to those who need it most low-income youth, elders, and people with disabilities while keeping electronics out of the landfill.
Through generous electronic donations, we refurbish and repurpose devices to serve communities from rural Chiapas to Coast Salish Territory (Pacific Northwest). We believe access to technology is a right, not a privilege.

Our Local Work in Coast Salish Territory (Pacific Northwest)
In Coast Salish Territory, the Chiapas Education Project is deeply committed to serving our local communities through technology access, training, and support—especially for low-income BIPOC youth, elders, and people with disabilities.
We offer free one-on-one computer repair training to low-income BIPOC students, providing hands-on skills that can lead to future job opportunities. After completing the training, each participant receives a free refurbished laptop—giving them both the tools and knowledge to thrive in a tech-driven world.
Our work also includes:
- Senior Tech Support – We help elders navigate technology with patience and care, offering one-on-one support for everything from basic computer use to device troubleshooting.
- Technology for People with Disabilities – We provide personalized tech support and computer donations for community members with disabilities, helping them stay connected and empowered.
- Mac Accessibility Program – Recognizing the powerful accessibility features built into Apple devices, we run a specialized program to match people with disabilities to Mac computers, ensuring they have the right tools to meet their unique needs.
At the heart of all our work is the belief that technology is a human right, not a luxury. Our prayer is to create pathways of liberation through access, education, and community care.
