Dear Conservation Partners:

We are really excited to announce the launch of our new website. It's the same domain name but a new look and some cool new functions.

There are two main things we want to accomplish with our new site: 1) Highlight what sets us apart from other "flashier" recycling companies, 2) Show off our Silverback Partners and all the great things they are doing! We want your input on how well we are accomplishing our goals.  (See below for more about the cool features of the new Silverback page and the chance to win $50 for your chosen charity by taking a brief survey.) 

As for future plans for the site, among other things we want to expand our RESOURCES page so that we can provide you with everything you will need to have a successful collection campaign right at your fingertips.  We want doing good to be as easy as it can be.
 
On a different note, we are going back to paying our fundraisers within 30 days of receipt of the phones. That just means your hard work will pay off faster.
 
Thank you for your continued commitment to doing the next right thing.

Sincerely,
 Eric_signature   Darker signature - Lindsey

Colleges and Universities offer recycling opportunities on campuses
 
Cell phone companies and carriers have been pushing new cellular devices and plans to student populations for years.  Now universities and colleges are bringing it full circle and empowering students by offering cell phone recycling.  Read more.

Thumbs Up Kudos go to ALL our partners

Thanks to our conservation partners, in 2009 ECO-CELL diverted over 64,000 phones, 6,249 pounds of batteries and over 4,000 pounds of accessories from landfills.
 
We want to know about all the cool stuff you are working on.  Let us know so we can feature your story on our website and in our other communications. (We love photos too! Email them to us.)
Save A Gorilla TodaySilverbackOne of the coolest features of our new website is our interactive Silverback page. Anyone looking to find a place to recycle their phone or phones can sort alphabetically, by location, or by charity type. They just may find and donate to your organization!  Special placement on our website is just one more perk of Silverback status. (Silverback status is granted to any organization who collects 1,000 phones or more.) Check out all the perks granted to ECO-CELL's Silverbacks.

Taking our Survey May Mean Cash for your Charity

After you have had a chance to review and use our new site, we ask you to take a very brief survey. (We will send out a reminder in about a week.) Your responses will help us better serve you. 

Take it and we will enter you in a drawing for a $50 donation to the charity of your choice. All entries must be received by April 15 to be eligible for the drawing.
