Phones for Life
Bring in your old cell phones to any WPCCU branch between now and September, and we’ll donate them to Phones for Life. The group is a non-profit organization that collects used cell phones for emergency 911 service to low income seniors, victims of domestic violence and adults with serious disabilities.
