Artemis Center needs old cell phones
The Artemis Center is collecting old cell phones to give to domestic violence victims so they can call 911 in an emergency.
Also, it will create revenue for the Artemis Center and possibly keep phones out of landfills.
Damaged and surplus phones are sent out to be recycled to raise money for Artemis.
For the last few years, Artemis Center has partnered with a firm specializing in the responsible recycling of used cell phones. This is a year-round program for Artemis Center.
“Donating an unwanted cell phone lets you support an important cause without reaching into your wallet,” says Susan Darcy, development director for Artemis Center.
To donate, erase personal information and remove SIM cards. Chargers are not required, but helpful. Mail or drop off old phones at Artemis Center, located at 310 West Monument Avenue, Dayton, Ohio 45402, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
For more information, please call Staci Grant at 937-461-5091 ext. 2010.
