New Years project to help victims of domestic violence.
January 3, 2011 – In an effort to give back in the New Year, Engenuity Group, Inc., a full service civil engineering and land surveying firm located in West Palm Beach, conducted a drive to collect old cell phones. The employees overwhelmingly supported this effort by donating all their old cell phones and even went a step further and collected them from family and friends. All phones and accessories were donated to HopeLine® to support victims of domestic violence.
HopeLine® from Verizon collects no-longer-used wireless phones, batteries and accessories in any condition from any wireless service provider. The phones are then refurbished or recycled in an environmentally sound way. Refurbished phones, complete with 3,000 minutes of wireless service, are provided to local domestic violence organizations or local government and law enforcement agencies for use with their domestic violence clients.
Domestic violence touches all of us. Nearly one in four women, one in nine men, and over 3 million children have been affected by domestic violence. Wireless phones and technology can serve as a vital link to emergency or support services in a time of crisis or as a reliable, safe connection to employers, family and friends as survivors rebuild their lives.
“Engenuity Group firmly believes in giving back to its community. These phones were an integral part of our business life, and we are happy to see them used by people in need, “states C. Andre Rayman, Engenuity Group, Inc., President.
