2014 October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month

Hopeline:

In honor of National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the City of Los Angeles will be collecting used cell phones, accessories and batteries for the HopeLine program at select locations throughout the city.

Verizon Wireless and the City of Los Angeles are conducting a HopeLine phone and accessory recycling drive benefiting survivors of domestic violence.Ā  Since 2001, HopeLine has awarded more than $21.4 million in cash grants to domestic violence agencies and organizations throughout the country and has distributed more than 180,000 phones with more than 319 million minutes of free wireless service to victims, giving them a “lifeline” to valuable resources.
