Transforming Communities With Electronic Recycling in Winnipeg

By electronic recycling association September 8, 2025

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) continues to make a meaningful difference in communities across Canada by giving refurbished technology a second life. Most recently, ERA donated 2 laptops, 1 printer, and 2 projectors to N’Dinawemak Inc. in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

ERA’s Commitment to Reuse and Community Support

For over 20 years, ERA has been dedicated to reducing electronic waste through reuse and refurbishment. By extending the lifespan of computers, laptops, and other devices, ERA helps keep e-waste out of landfills while providing valuable technology to nonprofits, charities, and community organizations in need.

The donation to N’Dinawemak is just one example of how ERA’s mission creates a direct and lasting impact. Organizations like N’Dinawemak, which recently launched an employment program for individuals transitioning out of their beds into the workforce, rely on technology to deliver training and expand opportunities for their participants.

How ERA’s Donation Helps

By donating laptops, a printer, and projectors, ERA is ensuring that N’Dinawemak has the tools necessary to:

  • Deliver digital and skills-based training to participants.
  • Support higher-level learning programs.
  • Provide staff and participants with the technology they need to succeed.

This donation strengthens N’Dinawemak’s employment program, which already sees 50% of their staff hired directly from their beds. With ERA’s support, they can continue to grow their initiatives and empower more people on their journey to independence.

Partnering With ERA to Make a Difference

ERA’s work is fueled by organizations and individuals who choose to donate their used electronics instead of discarding them. These contributions not only support environmental sustainability but also help ERA meet the growing technology needs of over 400 charities currently on its waitlist.

If your company or household has surplus electronics, you can join ERA in building stronger communities while protecting the environment. Learn how to donate today by clicking here.
