We continue to accept positive, inspirational stories about families (maybe yours) that are battling cancer.
Unfortunately, we’ve had to put the Medical Bill Makeover awards on hold as we add money to that Fund. I anticipate restarting the awards in September and keeping them at $1000.
Look for updates here and on twitter @cellsforcells.
You can also read the stories of previous Medical Bill Makeover recipients.

Spread the word
The more cell phones Cells for Cells recycles, the more families we will help.
Cells for Cells will award one family the Medical Bill Make Over for the time period announced. If Cells for Cells chooses your story, we will contact you via email or phone. Please include your phone number in your email. We will write the check directly to the individual (until our legal team tells us to do it another way). That way, you can apply the award to your medical bills or associated costs as you see necessary. [Medical Bills and costs can be: doctor’s bill, pharmacy bill, mortgage payment, gas for your car, flowers for a loved one, etc.]
***Shipping notes
Shipping about 10 phones will cost you between $5 – $10 dollars via the post office. To avoid this, let your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, etc. know that you are participating in this giveaway. Have them help you get more than 10 phones and then request a FREE shipping label.
***Other notes
By participating, you give Cells for Cells permission to use your story to promote Cells for Cells, Recycling, Cancer Patient advocacy, etc. You may need to provide other info as required by our legal team.
