Do a search on Google. You will get a lot of websites that accept them for different charities.

I know The BOdy Shop takes them. I think Verizon might as well and donate them to women's shelters.

your local police precinct probably takes them... i know we do in the city. they are given to victims of domestic violence who cannot afford a cell phone and live in fear... that way they can always call 911

our local American Legion has been heading up a drive with local businesses to collect old cell phones called "Cell Phones for Soldiers".

They collect cell phones, which are then recycled for cash to purchase telephone cards and pay for videophone calls, for service men and women in the armed forces. For every phone donated, 72 minutes is dedicated on a prepaid calling card to a soldier in Iraq.

Give your local chapter a call.
