The Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) is proud to work with clients like Pembina Pipeline who are invested in making a positive impact in the lives of others. When they reached out to ERA asking us to provide electronics to an aboriginal community that they work closely with we were happy to help! We provided the Kapawe’no First Nation with 5 laptops, 5 memory sticks, 2 projectors, and 2 TVs which will assist their new virtual school and from which they will greatly benefit.
Kapawe’no First Nation is located in Grouard, about 30 km North East of High Prairie, Alberta. The band’s six reserves comprise of 1562 hectares of land.

- ISETS (formerly ASETS)

- DAYCARE
- EDUCATIONAL SERVICES
- ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
- HEAD START
- HEALTH SERVICES
- MENTAL HEALTH
- HOUSING SERVICES
- SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT
- YOUTH SERVICES
Kapawe’no First Nation has a very stable governance system that is based on the hereditary system. Former Chief Frank Halcrow became Chief of Kapawe’no First Nation in 1970 and served the Nation for 50 years before passing on January 2, 2020.

The Electronic Recycling Association is committed to making electronic recycling beneficial for everyone including the environment! If you have any leftover electronic devices that you no longer need, or are not working as it should be, then we will take them off your hands, refurbish them, before giving them to charities across Canada.
We strive to meet reasonable requests for IT and related equipment, such as computers, laptops, projection equipment, printers, phones and related peripherals. Our goal is to fulfill every single reasonable request for a computer donation that we receive, and we are thrilled to announce that we are getting close to achieving this goal. Since 2004, we have donated thousands of computers to Canadians in need and this number grows daily.
Your donation can make all the difference to someone, as well as helping to reduce the impact of e-waste. Be part of the solution by donating your devices today. Call us at 1877-9EWASTE to book a pickup.
