Used phones benefit victims of domestic violence

My daughter had a slight mishap with her cell phone; it went through the wash. Tom and I both were entitled to free phones, and Christmas break seemed like an ideal time to address her immediate problem and get new phones for all of us.

Which got me to thinking. I remembered hearing about a program where used phones can be used to benefit victims of domestic violence. This is not one of the needs that immediately comes to mind when you think about helping someone who is escaping an abuser, but it makes perfect sense. If they are to create new lives for themselves, good communication is a must.

Verizon Wireless has a program called Hopeline. Used phones can be dropped off at any Verizon Communications Store, and they will be used to benefit domestic violence victims. This is a really good thing, and I will be dropping off the two perfectly good phones. <Click here to learn more. >
