Maxx Storage of Independence Township collects Cell Phones for Soldiers this Holiday season.
The donated phones are sent to ReCellular, which pays the nonprofit group for each phone ? enough to provide an hour of talk time to soldiers abroad. About half the phones are reconditioned and resold to wholesalers in around the world. The others are recycled.
Cell Phones for Soldiers raised almost $1 million in donations so far, and distributed more than 500,000 prepaid calling cards to soldiers serving overseas. For more information, call Maxx Storage, 8483 Andersonville Road, at 248-620-0101.
