WeeeFund is a French non-profit association and tech startup established in May 2017 by Cyprien Lefebvre and Théo Fayolle. The organization focuses on reducing electronic waste and addressing digital exclusion by reconditioning and distributing IT equipment to vulnerable populations. WeeeFund partners with companies and local authorities to collect unused IT equipment, which is then refurbished and provided free of charge to individuals facing social challenges, including those far from employment and residents in priority neighborhoods. WeeeFund operates under three main pillars: WeeeCollect, which gathers unused computers for reconditioning; WeeeSell, which offers reconditioned devices at fair prices; and WeeeWorkshop, which provides digital training workshops. The organization emphasizes a comprehensive approach that includes equipment provision, digital education, and IT maintenance, all aimed at promoting digital access and inclusion. Through its initiatives, WeeeFund has successfully reemployed thousands of computers and contributed to significant environmental benefits.
