One more way to help Babies

Did you know you can donate your used cell phone to be recycled and benefit the March of Dimes?

Learn more about the program here, or go directly to the postage paid mailing label and just send in your old phone in any USPS approved packaging.

We raised a truly outstanding amount of money for the March for Babies, and now I'm so delighted to discover this program- we can free ourselves of items that are totally useless to us, and help babies at the same time!

Why should I recycle my cell phone?
Electronic waste is the most quickly growing waste concern worldwide. The average life span of a cell phone is only eighteen months. On average 130 million cell phones are retired annually in the U.S. alone. Therefore, cell phone recycling is imperative. Nationwide, it is estimated that only 1% of retired cell phones are recycled or reused. The remainder litter closets, drawers, and unfortunately landfills. Cell phone recycling has even become a requirement in some states and counties. California has enacted legislation that requires retailers to accept obsolete and retired wireless phones from consumers at no charge. In addition, New York also has legislation that requires wireless telephone service suppliers to accept obsolete and retired cell phones at no charge to the consumer.
