Crockett Resource Center and Cell Phones for Soldiers 

Kick off 

Cell Phone Collection Drive

 

More than 150,000 troops are serving overseas and are away from their families.  Cell Phone for Soldiers and Crockett Resource Center (CRCIL) are calling on all Americans to support our brave men and women by donating their unused cell phones.  Cell Phones for Soldiers hopes to collect over 50,000 cell phones to help keep troops connected with their families.  The goal is to provide every U. S. Soldier with a way to call home for free.

 

The phones are sent to ReCellular and recycles for cash.  ReCellular pays Cell Phones for Soldiers enough for each donated phone to provide an hour of talk time for our soldiers serving in the Middle East.

 

Crockett and surrounding area residents can support the collection drive by dropping off phones, Monday through Thursday, at CRCIL, 1020 Loop 304 E, Crockett, Texas.  For more information, call CRCIL at 936-544-2811.
