ERA Donates Laptops to the Future Stars Cricket Foundation

By electronic recycling association April 26, 2023

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) has recently donated four laptops to the Future Stars Cricket Foundation through ERA’s donation program. The Future Stars Cricket Foundation is a non-profit organization that aims to promote and develop cricket among youths in Calgary.

The foundation recently launched the first-ever kids/youth cricket league in Calgary called “The Future Stars Cricket League.” The league is completely free of cost to the participants, and they have currently registered over 250 kids/youth for their ongoing winter season. They anticipate the registration to be well over 400 for the summer season.

In order to provide adequate equipment for their staff, the foundation reached out to ERA for assistance. ERA was happy to assist by donating four laptops to the foundation, which would be used to manage the administration work and registration process for the league.

The Future Stars Cricket Foundation has expressed its gratitude towards ERA for their generous support. The laptops donated by ERA will go a long way in helping the foundation manage their league and provide better services to the participants.

The foundation is still in need of other electronics, and ERA has pledged their support by filling the foundation’s requirements in the future. For those who would like to help ERA in donating their unwanted electronics, they can book a pick-up with ERA.

Electronic waste is one of the biggest environmental challenges faced by the world today. According to a report by the Global E-waste Monitor, the world generated approximately 53.6 million tons of electronic waste in 2019 alone. With the rapid advancements in technology, electronic waste is expected to increase by 38% in the next decade.

ERA believes in promoting a sustainable environment by responsibly managing e-waste. Through their donation program, ERA is committed to repurposing and refurbishing unwanted electronics to make them usable for non-profit organizations, schools, and other community groups.

ERA’s donation of laptops to the Future Stars Cricket Foundation is a prime example of how responsible e-waste management can positively impact communities. By donating unwanted electronics to ERA, individuals can make a positive impact on the environment and support non-profit organizations like the Future Stars Cricket Foundation.
