Over the past several days, Maria Martinez volunteered at the warehouse, working to earn a computer for her family. She has also been striving (with only limited success) to teach Spanish to one of our board members.
One of the great things about the Electroregeneration Society is that we often benefit as much (if not more) from our volunteers as they do from us. Having Maria with us for awhile was a real joy . . . and that board member did pick up a few more Spanish words and phrases. Thanks, Maria!

The Electroregeneration Society was spotted at the Sundance Film festival! The Salt Lake Film Society recently received some electro-regenerated equipment and chose to include us in a display thanking it’s donors. ERGS offers support to any 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, and we are delighted to support the Salt Lake Film Society in fostering excellence in cinema.

Rafael from the Utah State University, Center Center for Persons with Disabilities, Up to 3 program, stopped by the warehouse to pick up computers. The Up To 3 program provides services to families with infants or toddlers, under the age of 3, with developmental delays, disabilities, or diagnosed conditions with a high probability of resulting developmental delays.
The Electroregeneration Society is honored to be a part of this important work.
It’s remarkable to us that people come from as far away as Logan to participate in our programs. That people are willing to make a 2-3 hour round-trip commitment underscores the real, pressing need for affordable computers among nonprofits.

The Electroregeneration Society’s monthly board meeting will be this Saturday (Jan. 16) at 10 a.m. The meeting will be at out warehouse (555 S 400 W, Salt Lake City, UT). We encourage public participation and invite you join us.
Pete Ashdown is our Board President, and was the impetus for starting the Electroregeneration Society. Furthermore, he provides the warehouse space that enables us to serve so many good people and worthy organizations. In short, ERGS simply wouldn’t be possible without Pete’s support. Happy Birthday, Pete — and thanks for all you do.
In honor of Pete’s birthday, we invite all of you to join him in supporting the Electroregeneration Society. Giving is easy — simply click the “Donate” button on the right, and your contribution will help refurbish computers and eliminate e-waste pollution.
The Electroregeneration Society is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. As such, your contribution is tax deductible. You support is very much appreciated.
There’s an old joke that goes, “Volunteering: It doesn’t pay.” It’s always good for a few chuckles, especially in in the nonprofit world, where volunteers are so very important.
Volunteers are the real strength of the Electroregeneration Society. Some help out for just a few days, while others stay significantly longer — but we benefit from the knowledge and skills that each and every person brings to our programs.
And that joke about volunteering not paying? It’s just not true at ERGS. In addition to the personal satisfaction and fulfillment that volunteering provides, ERGS volunteers earn a free desktop computer after 15 hours. Everyone wins!
Thanks to all our volunteers. We really appreciate working with you.
Lee and Colleen are amazing workers -- they really helped us improve our recycling efforts.
The Kaspers (and friends) are real characters -- they brought a lot of fun to the warehouse.
Todd is one of our "repeat offenders" -- volunteers that keep coming back. His help is invaluable!
Dionne Stirland from Community Abuse Prevention Services Agency (CAPSA) picked up computers — both for the organization and for some CAPSA clients. Based in Logan, CAPSA helps victims of domestic violence and sexual assault, and works to prevent violence.
