Chuck your old cell phone and do your part for world aid

Admit it, you've been seduced by the blinking lights and astute urban marketing for that new cell phone; the one that emails, texts, plays music, snaps pictures, takes videos, and occasionally makes a phone call (and none of it very well). But what to do with the one you just got and the others before it piling up in that shoe box? You can relax because ReCellular, and many companies like it, have helped recycle and refurbish many of the nearly 100 million cell phones lying dormant in the US alone.

So, go ahead, spend with impunity. And next year, when the phone that makes waffles comes out, you can feel good knowing that somebody in Uganda will thank you.
