Donate Equipment & Technology

Not every donation has to be cash.

As our nonprofit grows, we need technology and clinical equipment for therapists, interns, and training spaces. If you or your business has newer equipment sitting unused, we may be able to put it directly back to work providing mental health care.

We are currently looking for:

  • Desktop computers — Windows 11 capable, preferably Intel Core i5 10th generation or newer / AMD Ryzen 5 equivalent or better, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD or larger, Wi-Fi, and in good working condition.

  • Laptops — Windows 11 capable, Intel Core i5 10th generation or newer / AMD Ryzen 5 equivalent or better, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD or larger, working webcam and microphone, and functioning battery/charger.

  • Cell phones: currently need 2 - Unlocked iPhone or Android phones that still receive current operating-system and security updates. Phones must be fully erased and removed from any Apple ID, Google account, activation lock, or carrier financing obligation.

  • iPads/tablets - Preferably iPad 9th generation or newer, 64 GB or more, in good working condition and able to run a currently supported version of iPadOS. Android tablets of comparable age and capability may also be useful.

  • EMDRKit equipment - Complete EMDRKit sets, tactile pulsators, light bars, headphones, controllers, or other compatible EMDRKit components.

Have something that isn't on the list?

Ask us! We would much rather put usable equipment into the hands of a therapist or graduate intern than have it collecting dust in a closet.

All donated equipment must be in safe, reliable working condition. For devices that previously contained personal or business information, please erase the device before donating it. We will also reset and configure equipment before it is placed into service.

Any Amount — Expanding Access to Care Every contribution helps us continue offering insurance-based services while training future clinicians.

At Northwest Mental Health Alliance, we are committed to making trauma therapy accessible—not just for clients, but for the next generation of therapists.

Our licensed therapists accept insurance so clients can access care. But that also means our internship program is financially supported by us—not by the work itself.

We believe training high-quality trauma therapists matters. And we’re committed to doing it well, even when it’s not the most profitable path.

Your donation helps bridge that gap.

It allows us to:

  • Train interns in EMDR and trauma-informed care

  • Provide supervision and mentorship

  • Equip them with the tools they need to do this work well

  • Keep therapy accessible for clients who rely on insurance

NWMHA is a 501c3 non-profit. All donations are tax deductible.

Why Give?

We’ve chosen a path that prioritizes access over profit.

Accepting insurance allows more people to receive care—but it also limits what the practice generates.

At the same time, interns don’t produce enough revenue to fund their own training and support.

We’ve made the decision to invest in both:

  • Accessible care for clients

  • High-quality training for future therapists

Your support helps make that sustainable.

Thank you!
