Hey there you guys at Fairphone! I wondered whether you might have any way of collecting gifts of dead/old electronics to exchange for new parts, maybe by exchanging them for credit with your suppliers? It would give us a way to support you even if we don’t have much money to spare. I have MacBooks and iPhones to recycle, and I would rather you made a little money from them than anyone else? (well, except for charities, that is!) Well, anyway… just a thought in this daft old head!
Just to get it straight, this is a community forum.
Fairphone already has a trade in program for old phones. You can send in old ones and get credit for your fairphone purchases.

About your MacBooks. Friends of mine work for projects where they would collect old laptops and refurbish them (i.e. repair them and install Linux on them) to give them to schools in need (which happen to be a lot in Germany). So maybe you find similar projects in your neighborhood/community…
