TIP: Your used cell phones/electronic devices can feed starving children in Africa!

Let me take your used cell phones/electronic devices to AFRICA! I’m headed back to Uganda July 13th and hope to take a suitcase full of used electronic devices that the Light up Life Foundation team can sell to help fund children’s school fees, nutritional needs and medical care! Please look around your homes for items you no longer need, from:

  • old cell phones (even cracked phones that work are valuable there – just NOT flip phones)
  • headphones
  • USB cords
  • SIM cards
  • batteries
  • old iPads
  • etc.

Drop off the items to CITY NATIONAL BANK in Front Royal by July 12th and please help make a difference in the lives of the amazing kids of Light up Life Foundation! Also, consider joining the generous donors who have contributed to Light up Life’s efforts in the remote village of Bunyade – I have a $12,500 match campaign HERE.

THANKS FOR THE HONOR OF BEING AN AMBASSADOR OF MY COMMUNITY’S GENEROSITY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD! I promise, every dollar matters and is so appreciated!

Please share and spread the word, and drop off items at:

City National Bank
M-F: 9am-5pm | Sat: 9am-12pm
600 North Commerce Ave | Front Royal
(A fantastic bank by the way – open an account when there and you won’t be sorry! Best customer service EVER!)
