Hey all, guess what? We donated a box of junkie old cell phones and won big money for YouthHOPE: $29.41!! It was like magic. Let me show you how we did it:
1. We collected used cell phones (plus their chargers if we had them) in a box.
2. I went to http://www.integritycsi.com/cpr and clicked on “Donate a Cell Phone.” I selected YouthHOPE from the list of charitable options and filled in my information.
3. Integrity Communications sent me an email that I printed out and included in the box. They also provided FedEx shipping costs because we had more than five phones!
4. I sealed up the box.
5. I addressed the box and affixed the FedEx pre-paid label from Integrity.
6. I called FedEx to find the nearest drop off location. Then I dropped it off!
Integrity Communications received the phones, wiped the information off of them for us, sold the ones they could online and ecologically-responsibly disposed of the ones they couldn’t. In just a few weeks, they sent YouthHOPE a fat check for $29.41 and sent me (the donor) an email that the money was on the way! Huzzah!
Do you have old cell phones gathering dust somewhere in your home or office? Send them in, experience the magic and support global youth ministry while saving the planet!
Cheers,
