The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to support the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada in Winnipeg, Manitoba, through a recent technology donation of five laptops — helping strengthen the museum’s archival operations and long-term preservation efforts.
Strengthening Heritage Preservation Through Technology
The Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada plays a vital role in preserving Canada’s aviation history. Its dedicated team of volunteers works tirelessly to record, digitize, and catalog historical collections and archives, ensuring that important stories, documents, and artifacts are preserved for future generations.
This donation of laptops provides the museum’s volunteers with reliable, modern tools to improve workflow efficiency, expand digital access to collections, and accelerate preservation projects that depend on secure, functional technology.
Technology That Creates Lasting Community Impact
Through ERA’s national reuse-first electronic recycling program, donated devices are professionally refurbished, fully data-wiped, and redeployed to organizations where they can deliver meaningful impact before being responsibly recycled at end-of-life.
For IT leaders and CIOs, this approach transforms surplus technology into measurable outcomes:
- Secure data protection through certified data erasure
- Stronger ESG performance by extending the lifecycle of IT assets
- Environmental sustainability by reducing electronic waste
- Community investment through digital enablement of nonprofits and cultural institutions
Advancing Digital Access While Reducing E-Waste
By supporting organizations like the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada, ERA continues its mission to bridge the digital divide while promoting responsible IT asset disposition across Canada.
Organizations looking to strengthen data security, ESG performance, and community impact are invited to partner with ERA to transform surplus IT assets into powerful tools for change.
