If you have any old mobile phones around the house text 'Mortgage' and your name and address to 51444 to get prepaid recycling envelopes sent out to you. Just put the mobile phone (it doesn't need a battery or charger and can even be lightly damaged) into the envelope and drop it into your nearest postbox. Each envelope will get you an entry into the draw to have your mortgage paid for a year. You can read about the previous winner here.
Alternatively, if your family or school would like some great technology then see 'Everyone can recycle mobile phones and get the goodies' for details on what you can get for recycling old phones.
There is also the story of Tess who collected 165 mobile phones to get an iPad for her son Dan, aged 6, with autism.We currently have about 40 families collecting old mobile phones to get an iPad for their special needs child!!
If you are interested in collecting for the technology offers email geraldinep@bpi.ie or phone Geraldine on 01 4279790.
