AT&T has pledged to work with the charity Cell Phones for Soldiers (CPFS) to drive cell phone recycling and reduce e-waste through the next year with a goal of doubling the number of cell phones the charity recycles by next Earth Day. CPFS collects and recycles mobile phones- more than 900,000 since Earth Day 2007- so it can provide U.S. military families with free phone cards.
Working together, and with your help, AT&T and CPFS have a new goal: collect more than 1.8 million devices by Earth Day 2009.
AT&T is currently expanding their support of CPFS to include a network of more than 300,000 community volunteers, a national donation drive running through July 2008, and a new online starter kit for donations, at
AT&T Media Kit - Earth Day.
Drop used mobile phones at any AT&T retail location, mail phones in via a free shipping label, or start a community recycling drive. Free labels and new tools supporting donation drives are available through the online kit at the link above.
Now, everyone can do their part to support the earth and military families.
