The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is happy to donate a laptop to Realize Your Potential Youth Society of Alberta for one of their students. Thanks to the generous donation of Pembina Pipelines, we were able to support this Calgary non-profit with the tech it needs to assist their clients.

Pembina Pipeline Corporation is a dynamic energy transportation and midstream provider, serving customers for more than 65 years.

“Realize Your Potential Youth Society has an exciting mission: to create and nurture a generation full of potential and the power to change the world by getting young minds to realize their potential.” Sharon H Cornwall, Founder.

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.

Do you have an old laptop that you don’t use anymore? A Samsung phone that doesn’t work? A stack of old electronic devices that are of no use? If so, the Electronic Recycling Association can help you, local communities, and the environment all at one time. Our goal is to collect unwanted or malfunctioning electronic devices from people and businesses in Calgary, refurbish them, and donate them to charities and programs. Your donation can make all the difference, so start electronic recycling in Calgary with us today. Check out our other depots located Canada wide here.
