About us
eWaste Warriors is a community for anyone passionate about giving tech a second life and connecting with like-minded people. We bring together professionals, climate advocates, tech enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to make a difference—no direct skills or experience needed! And if you just want to hang out with us, that's okay too.
Our mission is to reduce electronic waste (e-waste) in our communities by promoting repair, reuse, and responsible recycling. Through casual meetups, device drop events, and friendly networking, we show that making positive change can be social and fun.
Join us for laid-back events at cool local spots—bring an old device (if you can), grab a drink, and meet people who care about the planet and making things better together. Whether you’re new to sustainability or a longtime advocate, you’ll fit right in with eWaste Warriors.
Let’s reboot our approach to tech and build real community—one meetup at a time!
