Make a meaningful impact in your community by hosting a PHONE IT FORWARD Charity Campaign

 

The simple act of donating cell phones and other electronic devices that are no longer being used or that have been left behind in lost-and-found shows that simple acts of kindness can alleviate the effects of domestic violence, human trafficking, and elder abuse.

​

The PHONE IT FORWARD campaign was created by the 911 Cell Phone Bank (911CPB) as a charitable event that allows individuals, businesses, and organizations the opportunity to 'pay it forward' by donating unused electronic devices to help vulnerable persons in their community. 

​

We guarantee complete data erasure of all electronic devices according to the DOD NIST 800-88 Rev. 1 guidelines. Items that are damaged or unusable are securely disposed of through an ISO 14001 R2 certified recycler.

 

Donations help keep our landfills free of e-waste. We accept new, used, older, and broken devices.

​

The entire process is simple and 100% free – we even provide you with marketing posters, shipping labels, and tax-deductible donation receipts!
