About BinaryHeart at IMSA

BinaryHeart at IMSA is a high school student-run chapter dedicated to bridging the digital divide through technology recycling and refurbishment in the Aurora community and beyond.

As part of the larger BinaryHeart organization, our mission at IMSA is to collect, repair, and donate computers and other electronic devices to students, schools, and organizations in need throughout the IMSA area.

Our Mission

We believe that access to technology is a fundamental right in today's digital age. Our mission is to empower IMSA students and the Aurora community by providing them with the tools they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world.

Our Impact

Through our work at IMSA, we help students across the world access educational resources, participate in remote learning, and develop crucial digital literacy skills. We're also proud to contribute to environmental sustainability by keeping electronics out of landfills and giving them a second life in our community.
