How You Can Help
Workplace Giving
1. Become a Drop-Off Site
There are no costs to sign up. As an official Cell Phones For Soldiers drop-off site, your location will be listed on the charity’s public ZIP code locator page. Donors in your community will then be able to come to your location during normal business hours and drop off their cell phones for donation. Marketing material, including fliers, box label art to decorate collection bins, and much more are available here to help promote your location as an official Cell Phones For Soldiers drop off site.
2. Start a Drive
There are many ways to create excitement in a temporary cell phone drive. Print out posters, fliers and banners from our Volunteer Resources page and display around your workplace. Spread the word about the collection drive through email, social media and/or company newsletter. Encourage employees to bring old phones from home. All donations are tax-deductible.

Student Ambassador Program
1. Talent Show
Showcase the talent of fellow students and faculty members by hosting a talent show. Encourage individual or team participation and sell tickets for students, family and friends to watch.
2. Bake Sale
Parents, students and staff can bring baked goods for a one-day sale. All of the proceeds will go towards calling cards for our troops abroad to call home!
3. Earth Day
Encourage students and staff to bring in their old phones from home for a charity drive. Optional: make collecting phones fun and have classes compete to see who can collect the most phones. Winning class gets a pizza day!
4. Pancake Day
Sell tickets for a delicious breakfast to students. Offer food and refreshments for a set price. Students can also incorporate a ‘Card Decorating Station’ and have students design and decorate their own cards to send to the brave troops serving overseas.
What Students Get In Return
