Little Caesars in Newton is teaming with Cell Phones for Soldiers to help troops call home.
Little Caesars in Newton announced it will be a sponsor of Cell Phones for Soldiers during the months of March and April.
The Little Caesars at 1005 N. Main St. in Newton will collect used cell phones to help raise money for calling cards so troops can call home.
Postage-paid envelopes will be available to Little Caesars customers across the country so they can donate their old cell phones to support.
Each retired cell phone donated equates to about 60 minutes of talk time for troops to talk to their loved ones.
“We are proud to be providing our customers in Newton with a way to support our troops and help them connect with their friends and family,” said Kevin Cole, owner of the Little Caesars in Newton. “This is just a small way we can show our appreciation to our brave military men and women who sacrifice so much for our freedom.”
During March and April, customers can receive a Little Caesars/Cell Phones for Soldiers postage-paid mailing envelope with their order at participating restaurants. Customers who provide their e-mail address in the space provided on the mailing envelope will receive a special coupon offer for Little Caesars via e-mail.
Cell Phones for Soldiers was founded in 2004 by brother and sister Robbie and Brittany Bergquist, ages 12 and 13, respectively, at the time. To date, they have provided more than 62 million minutes of free calling cards thanks to a national network of individual and corporate supporters donating phones and money
