Creighton Pack & Ship Business Center in Pensacola, FL, Now Drop-Off Location for Cell Phones For Soldiers

Pensacola, Fla. – Creighton Pack & Ship Business Center, the leaders for shipping in Pensacola, FL, is proud to announce that it is a new drop-off and collection location for Cell Phones for Soldiers. With involvement in the program, Pack & Ship can be a close-knit part of the initiative to keep soldiers connected with their families.

Cell Phones For Soldiers, which started back in 2004, was created to help figuratively shorten the distance between soldiers overseas and their families in the U.S. The non-profit organization takes funds from old and recycled cell phones and uses that money to purchase prepaid phone cards for the men and women in our military. Having these phone cards allows for soldiers to communicate with their families more effectively, and most importantly, more often.

“It’s exciting and rewarding to be a part of such a strong initiative,” Thomas Armstrong said. “We believe that it’ll be a success for Pack & Ship and maybe even influence the other businesses in our area to get involved too.”

Every contribution worth at least five dollars towards the Cell Phone For Soldiers program helps provide at least two and a half hours of phone time for America’s soldiers. Any types of donations, whether it is cell phones, tablets, or other electronic devices, are much needed and greatly appreciated. No matter what is given, the soldiers who battle time and time again to protect the country will surely be thankful for any contribution.

“We hope to really get this program rolling in our company,” Thomas Armstrong said. “The more donations we can get towards this cause, the easier we’ll sleep at night knowing that our soldiers have a means of communication with their loved ones.”

Although usually a go to store for Pensacola Fl shipping, Pack & Ship is now looking to do even bigger things for a group of deserving heroes.
