Guts & Roses Charity in Winnipeg Receives Donated Tech

By electronic recycling association July 28, 2020

The Electronic Recycling Association is proud to announce the donation of 2 laptops, 2 monitors, 2 projectors, and 1 printer to the Guts & Roses Charity. This donation will help support the launch of a new program they’re working on for presentations, and the transportability of laptops will support on-site events.

The Guts & Roses Charity is a registered nonprofit that works to improve the quality of life for individuals living with Crohn’s, Colitis, and IBD. They do this by funding research, promoting awareness, and ensuring patients are kept up-to-date with treatment options. While there is no cure (…yet!) for Crohn’s Disease, Guts & Roses works to assist newly diagnosed children, teens, and adults with the healing process and providing accurate information regarding these conditions.

At the ERA, our vision is to foster a better community by assisting the non-profit sector to achieve excellence by providing reliable IT devices to meet their needs. ERA does this by refurbishing the items we generously collect. The majority of the devices we receive have the ability to be restored, have its product life cycle extended, and be kept out of the landfill. Even with the non-functioning electronics we collect, we’re able to extract many usable parts and put them towards another item, creating a functioning device.

With a focus on recovery, refurbishment, and reuse, the ERA continuously supplies charitable groups with donated IT equipment while securely managing the retiring IT assets of organizations and individuals across Canada. In a world where technology changes quickly and is a necessity for successfully running an organization, the ERA is always excited to fulfill each reasonable request and proudly support the communities we operate in.

Guts & Roses is one of the many organizations the ERA has supported this year. Since 2004, ERA has donated thousands of IT devices to hundreds of nonprofits, charities, schools, and care facilities across Canada. The ERA is proud to see our numbers grow each year and the positive impact we’re able to provide the communities we operate in. To apply for a donation, click here.
