PHONE
FUND
has three goals:
First,
to be a resource
for schools, churches
and other organizations
who wish to raise
funds for their
projects easily
and without start-up
costs.
Second,
to give new life to old technology. Although many of us want
the latest gadgets, our throw-away cell phones, digital cameras,
PDA's and laptops are very desirable in secondary markets such
as the pre-paid industry.
Third,
to keep toxic
e-waste out of
the landfill.
There
are more than
150 million unused
cell phones sitting
in homes all over
America. These
phones could mean
funds for your
group. Phone Fund
helps you organize
cell phone collections,
and pays you for
all the phones
you collect. You
spend no money
to get started,
and your whole
community, including
local businesses
and families,
becomes a resource,
plus you don't
have to ask anyone
for money. We
also accept your
collected digital
cameras, PDA's
and laptops.
We
work with each
group and customize
a campaign to
help you maximize
this fund-raising
opportunity. Your
group collects,
ships to us at
our cost and Phone
Fund sends you
a check. The whole
process couldn't
be easier!
We
have a variety of methods of disposing of the cell phones and
other electronics you collect. Phones are given new life through
refurbishing, where they get new faceplates, LCD's, batteries
or whatever is needed, and are repackaged and offered into secondary
markets such as the pre-paid industry. Those phones that cannot
be refurbished are recycled in an environmentally sound manner.
They are sent to recyclers and smelters to be defracted for
their component parts according to EPA standards. Click
