Meet Our Team
At the age of 12 and 13, Robbie and Brittany Bergquist heard the story of a soldier returning from Iraq with a near $8,000 phone bill. They couldn’t believe that a man serving his country was not able to call his family for free. They decided to do something about it. With just $21 and some help from their parents, Cell Phones For Soldiers was born. Now over 15 years later, Cell Phones For Soldiers remains a family run non-profit organization with a commitment to serving those who serve our country.
