Sharon Church’s 30-day Secure the Call phone drive is nearing the end of its April collection period, and we would like to thank everyone who has supported the effort so far. Many members of the community have donated cell phones and tablets throughout the month, and their generosity is helping support an important cause. Donated devices can be repurposed to help provide emergency access to 911 services or responsibly recycled to support the program and keep electronics out of landfills. We are grateful for the positive response and the willingness of so many people to turn unused devices into something that can help others.

There is still time to participate before the drive concludes at the end of April. Cell phones and tablets are accepted in any condition. Donations can be dropped off in the fellowship hall entryway at Sharon Church on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8am to 3pm. (If those times don't work, we can make arrangements for a time that does)

For questions, contact Sharon Church at SharonGMChurch@gmail.com or call 734-428-0996.
