Over 100 Phones Help Those with Vision Loss Thrive

On Friday the 21^st of September, we were invited to the CNIB foundations Phone It Forward campaign launch in Calgary. This turned out to be a fantastic launch where we donated over 100 phones to kick off this awesome partnership.

This campaign gives Canadians a unique opportunity to donate their old phones, receive a tax receipt, and empower people who are blind in the process. Smartphones make a tremendous impact on the lives of people who are blind. Accessible smartphone apps make it possible to do all kinds of things that may have seemed challenging before. For more information on this campaign, please visit their website here.

If you have unwanted or used phones sitting in your house or office that you no longer want, why not donate them to this cause? ERA will refurbish them and ensure all data is fully removed before sending them to the CNIB Foundation.

To send your donated phones to ERA here are the steps you need to be aware of:

Gather your devices – Phones can be non functional as well as functional

Call 403-262-4488 or book a pickup online

Make sure to mention to one of our reps, that this donation is going towards the Phone It Forward Campaign
