Have you thought about decluttering your technology? How many upgrades in phones have you done over the years? Did you just throw away or keep the old phone? I was cleaning out one of my desk drawers and for some reason I have blackberries, and a Samsung Galaxy 2 & 3, I even found an old flip phone. I have no reason to keep them.. I am trying to live a minimalist life and that means cleaning out my tech drawer and camera shelves.
I probably would have thrown them away, however I just heard about Hopeline® from Verizon. Did you know that every day 6,000 victims of domestic violence are turned away from shelters due to lack of funding? Through Hopeline® from Verizon, they connect survivors of domestic violence to vital resources, fund organizations nationwide and protect the environment.
It is very easy to get involved or to help out!
Donate a phone
You can donate a phone by following these five easy steps.
