$250,000 Goal

At Smartphones for Service Members, our core mission is to bridge communication gaps for veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. We understand the critical role that connectivity plays in the lives of those who serve our nation. To this end, we are committed to providing essential technology—smartphones, tablets, computers, and prepaid airtime—to those in need.

The United States is home to approximately 30,000 homeless veterans, a demographic that we are particularly focused on assisting. Our goal is to ensure that every one of these heroes has access to a smartphone. Moreover, we recognize that even non-homeless veterans may struggle to afford the high costs of modern smartphones. Thus, our program extends to support them as well.

Communication is vital for active-duty personnel, significantly boosting morale by keeping them connected with their loved ones. We are dedicated to providing them with the necessary resources to ensure uninterrupted communication, including unlimited prepaid airtime.

Our commitment also encompasses the families of U.S. service members. We recognize that their children have technological needs that are just as important, ranging from smartphones and tablets to computers. We strive to fulfill these needs to the best of our ability.

To efficiently achieve our goals, we collaborate with various non-profit organizations that specialize in supporting U.S. service members and veterans. These partnerships enable us to effectively distribute the technology to those who need it most.

Founded by Stephen Smith, a Harvard-educated philanthropist and seasoned entrepreneur with a rich background in executive roles within the wholesale consumer electronics industry, Smartphones for Service Members is more than just an initiative—it's a commitment to our nation's heroes.

We invite individuals and businesses across the United States to join us in this noble cause. Your support can manifest in various forms, from donating unclaimed property to setting up collection barrels in businesses or at events. We welcome all charitable contributions and are eager to expand our network of volunteers. Additionally, we provide convenient options for businesses and individuals to ship their devices directly to us.

Together, we can make a significant impact on the lives of those who have selflessly served our nation. Join us in our mission to keep our service members and their families connected and supported.
