    The Mission

    To ignite a movement where youth and changemakers transform unused devices into tools of empowerment—bridging digital gaps while reducing environmental impact.

    The Vision

    A future where every device becomes an opportunity, every individual champions sustainability, and no technology goes to waste.

    About Us

    Yantra Daan Foundation is a non-profit organization registered under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2024, committed to reducing electronic waste while bridging the digital divide. We work at the intersection of sustainability, education, and social equity by collecting second-hand and broken computers, responsibly repairing or refurbishing them, and giving these devices a meaningful second life.

    Our on-ground work focuses on empowering children and youth from underserved communities, particularly in Sanjay Colony, Delhi, by providing access to computers along with essential digital skills training. Beyond urban slums, Yantra Daan also supports rural communities by supplying second-hand digital learning resources to grassroots organizations working in remote areas. Through this circular approach, we minimize e-waste, promote digital inclusion, and create long-term learning opportunities for those who need them most.

    Our Philosophy

    At Yantra Daan, we believe change begins with responsibility—both personal and collective. Every individual has the power to create impact, not only within their community but also in their own life journey.

    We imagine a society where people consciously choose to donate or responsibly dispose of their electronic devices instead of letting them become waste. At the same time, we envision young people taking ownership of their learning, careers, and dreams. With a simple shift in mindset, technology can move from being discarded to being redistributed—creating a society that is more inclusive, environmentally conscious, and sustainable.
