Secure the Call is a 501(c)(3) charity that collects unwanted cell phones from sponsor sites, processes them and then redistributes them to those in need. In 2008, over 10,000 phones were collected and processed and suitable phones distributed to seniors and battered women. Secure the Call collects unwanted cell phones, wipes their memories clean of private information and gives them (free) to seniors and battered women in need and at risk. The phones will enable them to access 911 emergency services and are distributed through a national network of organizations serving these people.
