The month of July we received many donated drives. Here is a quick post to those who sent drives in and included their information on the envleop. Remember, if you want a mention or link back to your website, please include that information with your shipment.
Those who sent in, include:
Nadine Lai – Edmonton, Canada
Bennett – Raleigh, NC
James – UK
David Waro – Madison, WI
A. Harris – Forest Grove, OR
K. Saca – Alamo, CA
Mark Hank – Burnsville, MN

Remember, whatever you send in, we will use a Nexcopy USB duplicator to erase all the content on the drive. This process is done so that no data could be recovered or found on the drive after we give it away to SugarLabs.org
This week Recycle USB received 13 total drives for donation. Thank you for sending the drives. They will be sent to Sugar Labs on our next shipment out.
Thank you for the recent donation of 185 of 2GB flash drives! They will be put to good use. Per our website, if you donate drives and include information about your organization, we will re-post it.
For those of you who are viewing the website, please read the following:
==============================
I am part of Columbia Bank’s Professional Banking team in Portland Oregon. My department had acquired about 185 UB drives that we were no longer able to use. I did a quick internet search to see what I could do with them and was thrilled to find your website and learn about the great things you guys are doing around the world – both for youth education and the environment. One of the things I love most about Columbia Bank is how much we care about the community. Just last year, Columbia Bank put together 10,000 financial literacy kits for our local schools. The following is an excerpt from the Columbia Bank’s Engagement Philosophy:
Columbia Bank’s people are the center of our community engagement programs. Our people understand the needs of their communities and are passionate about improving them. By supporting their efforts, we amplify what they can accomplish on their own and extend our impact exponentially. We draw attention to the issues that matter to our people and act as an accelerant for the positive change they wish to create.
At Columbia Bank, we demonstrate this commitment through our comprehensive approach to community engagement, empowering employees to address the unique needs of their communities through four distinct pillars: fundraising, employee giving, volunteerism and company giving. Providing support through these employee-driven pillars allows us to have the greatest impact in the communities we serve. Because of these efforts, we are deeply woven into the fabric of our communities.
Each week we receive donated flash drives. Each week we are interested to see where the drives came from. This week we received drives from the following:
H Park – San Pedro, CA
Casey Priddy – Charlestown, IN
Campbell Ridge – Alex, KY
Aerzen – Coatesville, PA
Alice Verney – Centerville, OH
Unknown – Thank you unkown person!

An armchair guess saying that 50% of the donated USB flash drives come from corporations, we thought it appropriate to re-post an article with some valuable information for SD duplicator equipment.
Today, the optical drive is dead so many are going to flash memory for data distribution. USB is the defacto medium because every computer has a USB port, but most computers also have SD card readers.
We are still accepting flash drives and proof is last week’s collection of USB sticks. See picture below along with list of those who contributed. To those who did; THANK YOU.

These drives will be wiped clean (data removed at bit level and then formatted) and sent off to Sugar Labs so they may distribute your donated flash drives to kids all over the world.
It takes a bit of extra effort to recycle USB flash drives. Here is a list of those who put in that effort the past couple of weeks. Needless to say (but we will anyway) Thank You!
Thank you Forward Healthcare for sending in a box of recycled USB drives. We will erase the drive, format them, and send them off to SugarLabs.org for use.
