Assistive Technology

What is a makerspace?

A makerspace is a collaborative workspace with tools and materials for developing, prototyping, testing and improving ideas. It gives people with different skills and levels of experience a place to learn by doing and to share their knowledge with others.

What is EG's inclusive makerspace?

Engineering Good’s Inclusive Makerspace supports projects that use technology and engineering to address the needs of persons with disabilities.
 

People with different skills and levels of experience are welcome. No previous making experience is required, but participants should be willing to learn from others and share their own knowledge.

What are the tools available at EG's makerspace?
  • Hand tools (screwdrivers, pliers, hammers, and similar) 

  • Power tools (drill, saw, sanding, and similar)

  • Soldering (electronics and repair)

  • Microcontrollers prototyping (Arduino, Micro:Bit, and similar)

  • Digital solutions and Internet of Things “IoT” (Raspberry Pi, Alexa, etc)

  • 3D printer (Prusa MK3S+) 

Digital Inclusion

What can I donate?

We accept working laptops with processors that are eligible for an upgrade to Windows 11. Please refer here for Microsoft’s current list of supported processors before contacting us.
 

We may also accept tablets that are less than six years old and mobile phones that are less than four years old. Please contact us before arranging delivery, as our needs and storage capacity can change.
 

If your organisation would like to donate devices, email contactus@engineeringgood.org.

How do I donate laptops to Engineering Good?

Prepare an asset list showing the laptop brand, model and specifications. Email the list to contactus@engineeringgood.org to arrange a weekday drop-off between 10.00am and 6.00pm (excluding public holidays).


Please pack the laptops and their chargers securely in cardboard boxes. As a small charity, we are generally unable to arrange collection or delivery.
 

Disclaimer: By donating devices and/or accessories to Engineering Good, you agree to transfer full ownership of these items to Engineering Good (“EG”). EG reserves the right to, at its sole discretion, refurbish, distribute, repurpose, recycle, e-waste or realise the residual value of donated devices and/or accessories that subsidise its operational costs in order to execute its charitable mission to the fullest extent.

Do you accept faulty laptops?

We are generally unable to accept faulty laptops because we do not have sufficient storage space for devices awaiting repair.
 

You may wish to:
 

  1. Take the laptop to a repair provider.

  2. Offer it through a suitable reuse platform.

  3. Dispose of it responsibly at an NEA approved e-waste collection point.

​

How can I receive laptops from Engineering Good?

Engineering Good does not usually distribute refurbished laptops directly to individuals. We work through community partners that assess needs and coordinate requests.


If you need a laptop, please approach your nearest Family Service Centre or Social Service Office. The organisation may contact us on your behalf.
 

Here are some organisations that you can approach: https://www.msf.gov.sg/our-services/directories#familytab.

Can Engineering Good provide or send laptops overseas?

Our laptop distribution programme currently supports communities within Singapore through local social service agencies, rather than fulfilling direct individual requests. As our resources and distribution network are based in Singapore, we are unable to provide or send laptops overseas, or arrange referrals to our corporate partners.
 

If you are seeking support outside Singapore, you may wish to approach community organisations, educational institutions or digital inclusion programmes in your country, as they would be better placed to advise on locally available support.

How can a social service agency or non-profit request laptops?

We have a simple two-step process!
 

  1. Read our Notice for Community Partners. 

  2. Send us the signed Waiver form and Request table to request4laptops@engineeringgood.org.

Do you accept keyboards, monitors, desktop computers and other equipment?

Our ability to accept items other than laptops, tablets and mobile phones depends on current programme needs and available storage.
 

Please contact us before delivering any other equipment. If we are unable to accept it, you may consider a suitable reuse platform such as Pass-It-On or an approved e-waste collection point.

Can Engineering Good repair my personal laptop?

Engineering Good does not provide a general laptop-repair service. Please refer to our recommended community repair resource, SG Bono, for available support.
