Donate your cell phone
Wondering how to dispose of your cell phone? How about donating your cell phone to a chartible organization. Donated cellular phones can be used by victims of domestic violence and other charity organizations.
The Wireless Foundation
The CALL TO PROTECT campaign collects wireless phones to benefit survivors of domestic violence. Proceeds from the sale of phones help fund agencies that fight domestic violence and are also used to support the educational efforts of the Wireless Foundation. Other phones are refurbished and become lifelines for domestic violence survivors when faced with an emergency situation.
CollectiveGood is the mobile devices recycling resource. If you have spare mobile phones, pagers or PDAs sitting on a shelf or in a drawer, you can recycle them here in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.
The Charitable Recycling Team wants to assist you and the environment by making it easy to dispose of used cell phones. Because cell phones and their batteries contain many hazardous materials that can harm the environment if not disposed of properly, it's important to know how and where to recycle e-waste in an environmentally-responsible way.
The Charitable Recycling Program encourages the donation of used cell phones and will provide a monetary contribution to charity for each cell phone donated, regardless of age or condition.
Charitable Recycling is a terrific addition for companies and organizations interested in improving their waste reduction, reuse and recycling efforts as well as gaining a greater awareness for good community service.
