MED-LINE Launches Community Outreach Program in Chicago for the Holidays

MED-LINE is currently seeking to purchase or have donated to us your old cell phones. We buy new supplies for them (i.e. batteries, chargers, covers) and give them away to South Side Chicago communities, psychiatric outpatient wards, skilled nursing facilities, and shelters for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Only working modern phones made after 1999-2000. It is part of a recycling program and community health outreach program. If you would like to donate your time instead, please let me know, but we need old phones right now. We are also looking for old miniature working radios, walkmans, ipods, and small tv’s for the elderly. Write to the lead sponsor at drmittal@med-line.org. Thanks for helping out.
