ELPD has added a drop off box for anyone who wants to donate their old cell phone to benefit soldiers and veterans. The non-profit organization “Cell Phones For Soldiers” is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to providing cost-free communication services and emergency funding to active-duty military members and veterans. The drop-off box can be found in our lobby area.
