Dire Imminent Substantial Contribution Fall-Off
I recently reviewed some potentially devastating knowledge on the extreme changes coming to Not-For-Profits (NFPs) due to shifting demographics & the aging of the typical donor base. The information excerpted from Pew Research said in five years, Child Boomers who now give 90% of donations will reduce their giving by 59%. If that is true, it is vital for NFP's to connect with the Millennial Generation (born 1984 & later) while looking for other non-cash ways to raise badly needed money. This tide is rising for NFP's & it is time to act.
The Millennial's are giant on expertise, interested in green initiatives,and in this economy lots of are short on money. That is why a vibrant Cell Phone Recycling (CPR) program may very well be a NFP's ticket to initially penetrate the Millennial demographic with a viable non-cash donation opportunity.
Get Millennial's Involved
One time a Millennial is satisfied of the worthiness of a NFP's cause, they will start to look for ways to help. If offered a green initiative(like a mobile phone recycling program) they can communicate through various social media (Facebook, Twitter, etc...) on how simple it is to get involved & help. To feed the poor, grow a tree, help the rain forest, support ministry's, aid battered women's shelters, feed the pet's from the local no-kill shelter are all nice works mobile phone recycling currently benefit & all demographics are willing to engage.

Millennial Activation & Cell Phone Recycling
A well thought out CPR program liquidator will collect donor knowledge & provide that information for the NFP to contact. The NFP will e mail a note of appreciation for the mobile phone donation & file the information for additional contact in the future.
Get Access To Millennial Donor Information
Often consumers/businesses find themselves with used & unused cell phones/smart phones/PDA's wondering how best to dispose of them. It definitely ought to not be an option to dispose of retired cell rings in the trash (ending up in the local landfill) due to the harmful elements that are contained within the devices. It is true, some carriers will buy the rings back (for next to nothing) to remove them from the re-use market. On occasion the cell rings are re-purposed for resale. However, when given a choice, recycling retired rings to the benefit of a favored NFP while benefiting the environment makes excellent cents! Why not make your retired cell phone/smart-phone/PDA count for the nice of your selected Not-For-Profit that is both worthy & needy of your best help. As a consumer or an enterprise you can make what appears to be junk benefit that organization that you have an affinity for. A NFP will be to happy to utilize money derived from Cell Phone/PDA/Smartphone donations. Re-usable devices will be re-purposed, while the non-reusable devices will be disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner, proceeds benefiting your selected NFP.
