If you have old cellphones collecting dust in boxes, drawers or cabinets around your house, they can still be put to good use.
CT COMM will be collecting mobile devices and then turn them into 911 emergency-only phones for those in need until June 30, 2021.
CT COMM is volunteering its help to assist Secure the Call, a 501(c)(3) non-profit which collects used and unwanted cell phones to redistribute them to community partners nationwide. In this case, community partners include, but are not limited to, senior citizen centers, domestic women’s shelters, police and sheriff’s departments. Phones that are collected but are broken or unusable are then properly recycled and not sent to a landfill.
