The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to support Project Humanity in Toronto through the donation of four refurbished laptops, helping young people access the tools they need to explore their creative and professional potential.
These laptops will be dedicated to young participants in PH 1:1, Project Humanity’s socially engaged arts program. This initiative offers one-to-one online mentorships to youth on the margins, pairing them with professional artists in their chosen discipline.
In this case, the young recipient is living in a shelter and has limited access to technology. Through PH 1:1, she is pursuing her passion for filmmaking, and the laptop will serve as a vital tool for video editing and other production work. With a device capable of running current software and storing large video files, she will be better equipped to work on her mentorship projects and take steps toward her goal of building a career in the film industry.
Technology that Opens Doors
ERA’s mission extends beyond reducing e-waste — it’s about creating opportunities. By refurbishing and donating electronics, we provide essential resources to charities, non-profits, and individuals who may otherwise go without. In this case, the laptops will not only assist in the PH 1:1 mentorships but also contribute to empowering marginalized youth to tell their stories through art and media.
About Project Humanity
Project Humanity is a Toronto-based arts organization using the power of live performance and creative expression to build empathy and understanding in communities. Their PH 1:1 program exemplifies their commitment to supporting youth, especially those experiencing barriers to artistic engagement.
ERA is honored to contribute to this important work and looks forward to seeing the creative achievements that come from this donation.
