Proof of partnership
500+organisations supported across the ERA network since 2004.
The strongest outcome is not a device count. It is the useful work each device makes possible. Recipient comments are anonymised where permission to publish a name was not available.
Four ThinkPad laptops made a true difference in the lives of women and children touched by domestic violence.
The laptops were incredibly appreciated. None of these recipients would have been able to afford one on their own.
Thank you for not forgetting about us.
