Not to belabor the point, but all companies donate to charity. If that is their purpose, why aren't they a bona fide charity? They have hundreds of reviews and more than 99 percent of them are 5 stars. Really? I hope they are actually helping veterans, but there doesn't seem to be any way to verify it. Also, if recycling is the goal, mailing old cell phones around the country seems very inefficient.
