ERA DONATES TO THREE CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS IN ONTARIO

Christmas Came Early for Three Charitable Organizations within Ontario

Our team was out in full force today, in Ontario. We donated to three amazing charitable organizations who give back to the community in different ways. They comprised of The Mood Disorders Society of Canada (MDSC) in Toronto, The Pregnancy Care Centre in North York and Riverdale’s Immigrant Women’s Centre in Toronto. Each one of these organizations plays a major role in improving the lives of others and ERA were delighted to provide them with a donation.

The Mood Disorders Society of Canada 

The Mood Disorders Society of Canada (MDSC) has evolved to become one of Canada’s best-connected mental health NGOs with a demonstrated track record of forging and maintaining meaningful and sustained partnerships with the public, private and non-profit sectors throughout Canada.

We were delighted to donate 10 laptops to the MDSC. We asked Cristina Lopes, Clerical Support Worker at MDSC to comment on how the laptops will be utilized and she responded, “Our participants are preparing for employment. Often something as simple as the lack of computers can be a barrier. We provide computer training and include open source applications such as LibreOffice.” We wish them all the best for the future.

The Pregnancy Care Centre

The Pregnancy Care Centre was established in 1984 as a Christian non-profit, non-political, charitable organization to offer valuable community support. They are funded solely by donations from individuals, businesses, and churches. They provide free pregnancy tests and information, pregnancy options, personalized support for women preparing to parent or place their child for adoption and support for those who suffer after giving their child up for adoption.

We were thrilled to donate 2 laptops and a computer to this incredible organization. These devices came just in time as their old devices were slowly failing and they needed an upgrade badly. However, due to having such a low budget they could not afford to pay for IT equipment. We hope this donation helps them excel in their mission to help women throughout Ontario.
