Optus Wanted To Do More
Most businesses choose to just recycle their devices or send them to landfill, but Optus wanted to do more. Optus partnered with Zolo to give their end-of-life devices a second life. This initiative not only equipped students with valuable technology but also championed sustainable practices.
