Recycle to Eradicate Poverty, a free system for changemakers

Not a billionaire philanthropist but want to make a difference in the world? At www.onemillioncellphones.com, you can protect the environment from electronic waste and fund microfinance loans to the poor with one simple action: Type in your name/address to receive free prepaid baggies and send in your used cell phones.

Using this process and the support of an organization such as yours, we hope to beat the One Million Cell Phone Challenge. Recycling one million cell phones across America will save 350 trillion gallons of water (enough to stop Niagara Falls for 72 years) and allow 100,000 women to rise from poverty through microfinance (enough to fill the brand new Dallas Cowboys Stadium).
