Cell Phone Fundraising

Since 2002 our Phones 4 Charity program has been assisting organizations, groups and other charities in raising funds for their goals without asking for money from anyone. The key to this fund raising technique is old cellular phones. All over the United States, and even the world, there are millions of old cell phones sitting around because people are constantly upgrading for the latest and greatest technology available. This translates into a type of hidden cash, where people can donate to a cause, without ever opening a wallet.

The way that Phones 4 Charity works is pretty simple. Any religious group, school group, foundation, PTA, hospital, fraternity, marching band, amateur sports team and practically any other non-profit organization or association can form a Phones 4 Charity Phone Drive. Once a Phone Drive has been started, advertise throughout neighborhoods, stores, churches, schools and ask friends, family members, and local businesses for all of their old cellular phones that are no longer being used.

A great part of this fund raising technique is that these old phones do not have to be pretty or even functional. Phones 4 Charity will accept any cellular phone regardless of its current condition. The key to fundraising by collecting used cell phones is that the newer the model of the phone collected, the more funds it will generate.

Once a Phones 4 Charity Phone Drive has been completed, all that is necessary is to box up all the phones that were collected by your organization and ship them to Phones 4 Charity free of charge. After Phones 4 Charity has received your shipment, they will process all the phones, inventory them, and determine their values. Within a few weeks your charity or organization will receive a check in the mail for the total value of the phones that were collected. In order to collect the most money, it is best to collect more newer-model phones than older models. The most current models of phone are in the highest demand, and could bring in between $10 - $200 per phone.

Any type of non-profit organization can use Phones 4 Charity to raise the funds necessary to meet any goal that is set. The phone drives are flexible because each organization can set its own time frame. A school marching band might set a three month time frame for an upcoming competition, while a church youth group might collect for six months to fund a mission trip. An organization or charity can increase the number of phones collected and in turn the amount of money raised simply by extending the length of time their phone drive lasts.

If you know of a non-profit group, school group, youth group, amateur sports team, or any other non-profit organizations that needs to raise funds to meet a goal, suggest that they use Phones 4 Charity. These groups can all benefit from collecting old phones from the local community to support their cause or goal. Phones 4 Charity helps organizations to raise money and can be a powerful fund raising technique by itself, or even as an addition to another fund raising event.
