Calling All Used Cell Phones!

Writer: Mike BahlerMike Bahler

WHAT: Phones that can accept a sim card 

WHERE: The Cornerstone  Community Kitchen 

WHEN: 9 AM - 6 PM M-F, 10 AM - 1 PM Sa&Su 

WHY: Having reliable access to a phone can make a huge difference in an individual's ability to access services, employment opportunities, and even basic safety.  In recognition of this need, there is a federal program that provides cellular services to low-income households at no charge, known as Lifeline.  Unfortunately, while this program has provided physical devices in the past, it now only provides a sim card and service plan.  Individuals are left to obtain their own physical phone to use with the program.  That's where you can help! 

 

We are looking for used, no longer connected phones, in good working order, which we can use to help eligible individuals sign up for the Lifeline program.  Phones will be factory reset and offered on a "first-come" basis to those who use Cornerstone services and qualify for Lifeline. 

 

Phones can be dropped off at the Cornerstone Community Kitchen office during normal hours of operation. Thanks for your support!
