ERA Donates 2 Computers to the Osoyoos Desert Society

By electronic recycling association March 4, 2022

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) was happy to provide 2 computers to Osoyoos Desert Society to replace their old tech with faster working computers.

Osoyoos Desert Society is a non-profit charitable organization founded in 1991 to conserve the rich, biologically diverse habitats of British Columbia’s southern interior.  In 1998, as part of its education and advocacy efforts in support of the south Okanagan’s natural spaces and species, the Society opened a nature interpretive facility – the Osoyoos Desert Centre. The South Okanagan is home to one of the highest concentrations of rare and at-risk species in all of Canada. Through its conservation, restoration and education efforts, the Osoyoos Desert Centre strives to generate public knowledge, respect and active concern for these fragile and endangered ecosystems. There are many ways you can get involved with the Osoyoos Desert Centre, check out their website HERE for more information!

The ERA (Electronic Recycling Association), is focused on reducing unnecessary waste and/or environmental impact through effective management of retiring electronic and IT equipment.  As a non-profit organization with deep community roots, it is our “reuse” focus and donation activities that set us apart from others in this sector. We are an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 Certified Company that offers pickup services, comprehensive data security measures and subsequent reporting. Individuals and organizations alike move through technology hardware for a number of different reasons, and often there is ongoing productive use. 

The ERA believes that “reuse” where ever possible is the most ecological approach to this growing stream, and an excellent way to compel real community goodwill at the same time. The Electronic Recycling Association has a clear mission of reducing electronic waste through computer recycling, laptop recycling and computer donation services. With depots throughout Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and all of Canada. ERA provides a great way to recycle electronic equipment safely and securely.

With so many electronic devices being discarded every day, why not make use of them and help both the environment and local communities? That has been our goal here from the start. It is why we are committed to electronic recycling in Canada, and why we’re ready to service you. Whether you want to drop off your devices or let us pick them up for you, we will take them off your hands.
