The TMI Initiative, formerly known as TMI Arlington, seeks to help nonprofits serving Arlington to become more efficient, more effective and greener. Created to coordinate the receipt and distribution of legacy IT equipment throughout the Arlington community and Northern Virginia. Partnering with Microsoft, Dell and other vendors, the Initiative repairs any broken parts, securely erases all legacy configuration, programs and data, and installs new copies of Microsoft Windows, Office, and anti-virus. Once completely refurbished and tested, The Initiative’s Donations Team works with various non-profit organizations, educational facilities and individuals in need to distribute the equipment, at no cost to the recipient, where it can be most utilized.

You can help us connect non-profits and those in need with the technology they need to succeed.

Here’s how:

DONATE! If you have used computers, laptops, printers, etc. in a closet and you have been wondering how to safely dispose of them, simply send an email to donate@tmiarlington.org. Your donated equipment will help a local non-profit improve our community!

VOLUNTEER! Volunteer your time picking up technology from donors or being on hand at scheduled donation events or use your computer skills to refurbish donated technology.

SPONSOR AN EVENT! Donate funds to sponsor an event, defraying advertising and other costs that can then be used to provide additional equipment and training resources to our recipients.
