Our Pandemic Partner

Creating Partnerships that last

With many companies and organizations moving their employees to work remotely from home, it became apparent of how many businesses were not able to afford the technology to support those working remotely in a seamless manner.

Currently, individuals and organizations do not have the means to pay high prices for technology like printers, copiers, or scanners. The closures of non-essential environments that would usually offer printing, copying, and scanning during the pandemic, including libraries, has affected everyone. This need was the reason why we created the pandemic partnership.

Not all organizations can suddenly help subsidize personal printing and scanning devices for their staff. Especially not after sudden costs associated with closing and potentially deciding between office equipment and keeping staff on an already tight budget.

That is why PrinterWorks West wanted to help donate refurbished or new devices with competitive pricing to meet organizations needs and also their budget.

TheHome Heart Network will be their first organization to reap the benefits. PrinterWorks West hopes to work with more organizations like them in the future years to come. The Home Heart Network provides shelter, supported housing, and comprehensive services including counselling, case management, instrumental needs, life skills training, employment education, social programs and therapeutic child and youth services to women and children leaving situations involving family violence. Families can live at Home Heart Network for up to 30 months while they rebuild their lives in their safe and secure facility. Each year more than 300 children call Home Heart Network home.
