Donate Cell Phones For Soldiers

Most likely you’ve already heard of this, have seen the mailer included with a package, or had one dropped off in your mailbox.

Regardless, in honor of Independence Day, I’d like to remind you of Cell Phones for Soldiers; a simple way to give back to US troops by recycling old, unused cell phones:

Since its inception in 2004, Cell Phones for Soldiers has worked to keep military families connected by providing FREE communication tools to those serving overseas in the United States military. In seven years, the registered 501(c)(3) has provided troops with more than 2 million pre-paid calling cards, equating to more than 150 million minutes of FREE talk time.

You can make a cash donation online or click here to find a drop-off location near you.  There are locations all across the country.  A quick zip code search near me revealed 20+ locations.

Cell Phone Data Eraser

If you are mailing in a phone or dropping one off, be sure to click here for instructions on how to erase data, photos, and personal information.  This is not a requirement however, should you forget.

Happy Independence Day, America.  Enjoy your Fourth of July festivities!

  • i have done this a couple times and i am a recycle queen. actually some would say freak.

  • Recycling old devices while helping service members stay connected with their families is a powerful idea. Programs like this show how technology that might otherwise sit unused can create real value for people serving overseas. Since the initiative has already delivered millions of minutes of talk time to troops, how has participation changed as mobile technology continues to evolve? (VoIP Supply)
