Help A Child, Recycle Your Unwanted Phone
In Jamaica, a local cell phone provider is setting up a large scale recycling campaign to help children affected by HIV/Aids. The campaign entitled, Help A Child, Recycle Your Unwanted Cell Phone is a joint effort between Digicel Jamaica and Jamaica AIDS Support For Life to collect, manage, and sell old unwanted cell phones from consumers.
The phones would be auctioned off in bulk to businesses in the Far East and Africa which deal in reconditioned handsets. There, depending on the condition, a handset will sell for anywhere between US$1 and $5.
The money raised will go toward helping fund additional research, treatment and prevention of one of the most ghastly diseases ever to hit the human race.
We hope Digicel Jamaica raises alot of money through this most noble recycling effort.
