ERA & United Way Partner Together to Donate Laptops to Carya

By electronic recycling association October 15, 2020

The ERA is proud to announce another donation through our joint initiative with United Way to supply Calgary charities and non-profits with donated computers. This time we provided Carya with 13 laptops which will assist their clients and their operations.

At Carya, they know that the strength of the community is rooted in its people. That’s why they’ve dedicated more than 100 years of service to creating healthier, more connected communities in Calgary.

With 40 program offerings for individuals and families, they provide a full spectrum of interactive counseling and development services for people of all ages — from babies to youth to older adults — and their support network.

Their highly-skilled team encourages more than 40,000 Calgarians each year to discover their full potential and build flourishing relationships with their families and community. Visit their website here to learn more.

Everyone needs a hand at one point or another, and everyone deserves a fair shot at a good life. That’s why United Way exists—to improve lives locally. But in a city of nearly 1.4 million people, it is impossible for one individual or organization to respond to all the social needs—strong partnerships are key to creating change in our community.

United Way of Calgary and Area operates within a strong network of social services to build a connected system of community supports so everyone has access to programs and services when they need them, guaranteeing daily assistance for our community’s most vulnerable people.

The Electronic Recycling Association is a non-profit organization committed to reducing the negative impact e-waste has on the environment through our focus on the recovery and refurbishment of unwanted electronics. We provide charities, non-profits, schools, and care facilities all across Canada with the IT equipment they require to efficiently run their programs and help their clients. You can get involved in helping us further this mission by dropping off your pre-loved devices at one of our 7 warehouses. Or call us to book a pickup today!
