Charities to earn income from promoting contract mobile phones

Howard Lake | 4 May 2006 | News

Charity Mobiles is a new initiative that allows charities to earn £25 for each contract mobile phone that they persuade supporters to sign up for.

Charities are being encouraged to promote the initiative by linking from their websites to the Charity Mobiles site.

CharityMobiles.co.uk is a sister site to Mobiles.co.uk, which has been trading online since 1995 and which won the Best Small Retailer 2006 award in the annual mobile phone industry awards at the Hilton London hotel in Park Lane.

Lisa Green, Development Manager for Charity Mobiles, said: “Throughout its ten year history Mobiles.co.uk has always donated generously to charities. CharityMobiles.co.uk is designed to allow commerce and charity to work together in harmony, and bring great consumer benefits as well. We are offering this fundraising opportunity to all UK registered charities, no matter how big or small they are.”
