Description

Donate your Old Cell Phones to Victims of Domestic Abuse

The LVMPD Foundation is proud to partner with the LVMPD's Victim Services Detail to collect cell phones and small electronic devices (iPads) to help victims in need.

You can be the #1 thing that makes a difference in the life of a victim experiencing domestic abuse by supporting programs that offer support, encouragement, stability, and love. 

So that half-decade-old phone tucked away in storage will still call for an ambulance or police assistance, provided the battery is chargeable. LVMPD Victim Services Unit works with an organization that accepts used cell phones and then re-purposes them as emergency-only devices meant to dial 911 dispatchers. The organization checks each donated telephone to ensure the battery still works and packages them with a charging cable for distribution to high-risk community members. These include domestic abuse survivors and the elderly.

You can find multiple drop-off locations throughout Southern Nevada; call our office at 702-331-6492.

Do #1Thing to make a difference to a survivor of #DV. Donate your small electronic device or cell phone, or make a contribution by visiting https://lvmpdfoundation.org/donate/
