“As Green Calgary gets busy again after two years of reduced program delivery due to the pandemic, we have found that our technology has not maintained pace with our programming.”
Green Calgary
The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) was pleased to donate 2 laptops Green Calgary to replace some of their older equipment that was not functioning well anymore.
Since 1978, Green Calgary has been a leading urban environmental charity empowering Calgarians to green the way they live, work, and play. Green Calgary has worked with tens of thousands of Calgarians because they know that only by working together can we effect real change for the sustainability of the city of Calgary and ultimately our planet.
Even ERA has teamed up with Green Calgary & IKEA to host an electronic collection event in honour of Waste Reduction Week on October 22, 2022.

The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to address the growing problem of e-waste and the increasing ‘digital divide’. For over fifteen years, ERA has offered simple solutions to help individuals and organizations prevent operational equipment from premature destruction. With a focus on recovery, refurbishment and reuse, ERA continuously supplies charitable groups with donated IT equipment while securely managing the retiring IT assets of organizations and individuals across Canada.
We believe that reuse before recycling is critical in managing the waste created by computer hardware, and by offering industry-leading data destruction for all equipment we receive, we have securely repurposed hundreds of tons of equipment. Because not everything ERA receives can be reasonably repurposed, we have partnered with certified recycling organizations to process equipment that has reached the end of its productive life.
Do you have an old laptop that you don’t use anymore? A Samsung phone that doesn’t work? A stack of old electronic devices that are of no use?
