Through With Your Cell Phone??
We have joined the 911 CellPhone Bank, a nationwide organization created in May 2004 to make 911 emergency cell phones and funds available to meet unexpected and urgent needs of members of the National Sheriff's Association and other participating law enforcement agencies and affiliated victims services agencies.
Please bring your used cell phones to our office at 25 St. Dominic Road (adjacent to the Y) in Wakefield). Our hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.
Each phone donation will bring us money to support our programs. Your donation is vitally needed.
