Back in 2008 the Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) helped the Wilderness Youth Challenge Program (WYCP) with their first PC and laptop to kick start their two-year-old initiative. Over the following years the ERA supported the development of the charity by donation additional electronics to support their growth. Those devices are still being used today but are now running into software complications as the units get older.
The ERA is pleased to announce the recent donation of 2 laptops and a desktop computer to the Wilderness Youth Challenge Program (WYCP). This donation will enable them to work more efficiently, enhance productivity, and improve the service to the youth they serve.
The Wilderness Youth Challenge Program (WYCP) is a non-profit charity organization in St. Albert, AB that works with youth at risk of relapse. They believe that at risk youth need to learn how to develop positive self esteem, build healthy peer to peer bonds and trust their ability to make good decisions. WYCP provides skill based challenges in the wilderness to help build these youth’s trust in others and themselves.
