With your old laptops, we create new futures.

Millions are locked out of education, employment, and services because they lack access to basic tech. The Million People Project exists to fix that.

Mission & Vision

We’re on a mission to lift 1 million people out of digital poverty and exclusion.

 

By collecting, refurbishing and redistributing unwanted tech, we give it a second life — and help to the people who receive it. We believe in dignity, not pity.

Together, we can turn yesterday’s tech into someone’s tomorrow.

Our Founder

Warren Milburn (Tech expert at InfraZen IT) started The Million People Project during lockdown, using his IT skills to help families cut off by digital poverty.

 

What began with fixing a few laptops in his village has grown into a global mission to give one million people access to opportunity. His driving belief:

 

"Tech should be a lifeline, not a luxury."

The Process

We make it safe and simple to let your unneeded tech change the lives of others.

  1. You donate
    Fill out our quick form and send us your device (or arrange a collection if eligible).
     

  2. We wipe
    InfraZen performs a military-grade data wipe. You receive a certificate confirming secure erasure.
     

  3. We refurbish
    Devices are tested, repaired, and made ready for a second life.
     

  4. We match and deliver
    Your tech is placed with someone who truly needs it – a student, a jobseeker, a family, or someone rebuilding their life after hardship, including survivors of human trafficking.
     

  5. You hear back
    Where possible, we’ll let you know where your device went, and the difference it made.
