How do you build a more sustainable world? One pair of hands at a time. We help the humanitarians who are shoring up local communities across the globe.
The NuggetLove method is simple: We partner with organizations that create self-sustaining communities. That means they do more than just address basic human needs like water, shelter, and sanitation. They also educate people, encourage entrepreneurship, and help stimulate local economies.
Once we find them, we provide targeted financial support and consulting. All strategically focused to help them grow, amplify their impact, and become sustainable themselves.

Our sustainability mission
We believe businesses should leave the world better than they found it. So we joined the UN Global Compact and made a commitment to sustainability. To us, that means more than just donating our used technology (although we do that too). We also use our training expertise to make people and organizations more self-reliant.
Transitioning from military service
Leaving military service for civilian life is a huge transition. We should know—our owner is a U.S. veteran. We’ve helped ease that transition by providing free IT training to more than 9,000 users from every branch of the armed forces through our:

Social Justice Initiative
We believe that everyone deserves equal social, political, and economic rights. CBT Nuggets is proud to support organizations that are committed to social justice causes. To that effect, we’ve established an employee donation matching program to raise awareness and funds for social justice organizations.
We are proud to support the following organizations:
Rodale Institute is dedicated to growing the organic movement through rigorous research, farmer training, and consumer education.
Founded in 1970, the Native American Rights Fund is the oldest and largest nonprofit legal organization that asserts and defends the rights of Indian tribes, organizations, and individuals nationwide.
Beyond Toxics is a statewide environmental justice organization advancing policies that ensure meaningful participation and cultivating grassroots leadership from Oregon’s frontline and impacted communities.
Coalition of Communities of Color is committed to addressing the socioeconomic disparities, institutional racism, and inequity of services experienced by families, children, and communities.
White Bird is a collective environment organized to enable people to gain control of their social, emotional and physical well-being through direct service, education, and community.
