SEE UPDATED POST Now that we have bumped it up to $500
Cells for Cells is giving $100 to help someone pay their medical bill. [At Cells for Cells, we define “medical bill” a little differently, so keep reading.] We will write a the first check for someone on Friday 2-27-09.
As part of our new One Million Cells program, Cells for Cells will help pay medical bills of families battling cancer. We are starting small and plan on being able to give more money to more families.
We want to give to families that are the most deserving and the most inspirational as they fight this very tough battle.
Here are the rules. Please follow them perfectly. (The rules are subject to change at any time, so check back often for updates):
- Email your story about battling cancer to jason(dot)cellsforcells(at)gmail(dot)com
- The subject line must be One Million Cells: My Story
- Your story can be your own, your family member or friends
- Your story must include your current situation and how you encourage others that are battling cancer
- You must follow me on twitter @jasonclements
- You must recycle at least one cell phone w/ Cells for Cells
- If you have less than 10 phones to recycle – you foot the shipping bill
- If you have more than 10 phones to recycle – Cells for Cells will foot the shipping bill
Request your free FedEx label here
PLEASE NOTE – we are giving away $100 this Friday 2-27-09. If you don’t have an opportunity to send a cell phone to recycle, just promise to do so as soon as you can.
MOST IMPORTANTLY Spread the word. The more cell phones Cells for Cells recycles, the more families we will help.
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 $100 to your “medical bills” as you see necessary. [Medical Bills: doctor’s bill, pharmacy bill, mortgage payment, gas for your car, flowers for a loved one, etc.]
Thank you for Recycling Because You Care!
Very Sincerely,
Jason Clements
