About Pony Up for Good
Southern Cross Computer Systems & PonyUp for Good have been partnering since 2016, engaging our clients in an exciting initiative to leverage the residual value of client technology during upgrade programs and turn it into meals for people in need via the amazing work of SecondBite – Australia’s largest fresh food rescue charity.
The initiative is underpinned by a circular economy strategy, ensuring reuse first and recycling where reuse isn’t possible, reducing landfill and forming part of a collective mission to reduce waste and end hunger.
Our Process is Simple
