12 Days of ERA’s Christmas Donations

By electronic recycling association December 7, 2021

Giving is Rewarding

The holidays are the perfect time to take stock of what you have, and pass on your good fortune to others. You can be a gift that keeps on giving, making a huge difference in the lives of others. At the same time, you’ll be clearing out your office of any unwanted electronics, purging things you no longer need like laptops, computers, cell phones or tablets, and making space for the new year to come.

Currently, the ERA has a growing list of over 400 pending organizations that are in urgent need of IT related devices. These items are needed to improve the lives of others and act as an anchor so that organizations can progress and make a real difference within the community. The ERA is looking for your help to spread a little holiday joy.  All donations collected during this time will be use for 12 Days of ERA’s Christmas Donations.

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to address the growing problem of e-waste and the increasing ‘digital divide’. For over fifteen years, ERA has offered simple solutions to help individuals and organizations prevent operational equipment from premature destruction. With a focus on recovery, refurbishment and reuse, ERA continuously supplies charitable groups with donated IT equipment while securely managing the retiring IT assets of organizations and individuals across Canada.

We believe that reuse before recycling is critical in managing the waste created by computer hardware, and by offering industry-leading data destruction for all equipment we receive, we have securely repurposed hundreds of tons of equipment. Because not everything ERA receives can be reasonably repurposed, we have partnered with certified recycling organizations to process equipment that has reached the end of its productive life.

With depots located across Canada, you can easily drop off your unwanted electronics to be refurbished and donated back into the community. Call us at 1877-9EWASTE to see if you are eligible for a free pickup.
