Like me, you’ve probably been watching the coverage of the earthquake in Haiti with a big knot in your stomach and maybe you’ve already donated $10 by texting HAITI to 90999<\/a>, but if you want to do more (and help out the environment while you’re at it), there’s an easy way to do so.<\/p>\n ReCellular<\/a> has launched a disaster relief program for the victims of the earthquake called “Phones for Haiti.”<\/a> All proceeds from donated phones will go straight to the American Red Cross for their work in the country.<\/p>\n If you’re like most people you have an old cell phone lying around somewhere and this is a great way to donate to those in need and keep your electronic waste out of a landfill at the same time.\u00a0 ReCellular refurbishes the donated phones and then sells them to people in developing countries.\u00a0 Some phone models like Blackberries or iPhones could contribute up to $100 to the Red Cross.<\/p>\n ReCellular also accepts your old chargers, batteries and other accessories and the shipping is free.\u00a0 Click here<\/a> to get started.<\/p>\n
