AFCEA and Verizon Wireless are proud to support HopeLine®

As the number of wireless communication devices increases, so do the number of unused wireless phones. HopeLine® phones are provided to participating domestic violence agencies and organizations nationwide for use by victims and survivors as they rebuild their lives.  While at TechNet Asia-Pacific, help save our environment and help support a good cause by bringing  your old phone* and donating  it to the HopeLine® phone program.  Phones that can be refurbished are sold for reuse and those without value are disposed of in an environmentally sound way. Proceeds are used to provide wireless phones and cash grants to local shelters and non-profit organizations. Since HopeLine's national phone recycling and re-use program was launched in 2001, Verizon Wireless has collected more than 4 million phones. We appreciate your support!  You can drop off your old phone at the Verizon Wireless Cyber Cafe in the exhibit hall or at Verizon Wireless Booth 41. 

* HopeLine accepts no-longer-used wireless phones, batteries and accessories in any condition from any wireless provider. Thank you for your support!
