cell phones for battered women

Does anyone know where you can donate old/working cells phones? I stopped by the police station in Port Washington, and they no longer collect them...

THANKS!

I gave mine to the police station. They should have told you where you can bring them to.

Verizon Wireless stores can help you. They will give you a padded envelope to mail it to the battered women ( i don't the name of the charity..eek).

hello. you can donate old cellphones to the Victims Information Bureau of Suffolk County. Their office is in hauppogue, though i am not sure if it is also the drop off location. please refer to their website and contact them by phone for more information.
