TCC and More Than a Phone Unite to Combat Domestic Violence
This October marks an important occasion as TCC and More Than a Phone collaborate to raise awareness about domestic violence through a nationwide campaign. The initiative not only highlights the issue but also provides support to survivors in meaningful ways.
Art Contest to Honor Survivors
As part of their mission, TCC and More Than a Phone introduced an inspiring art contest where domestic violence programs within More Than a Phone's network contribute original artwork. These creations will be featured on microfiber screen cleaning cloths, demonstrating the creativity and resilience of survivors.
Vote for Your Favorite Design
The public is encouraged to participate by voting for their favorite design among the top five finalists. The winning design will be available for purchase at participating TCC locations, which not only promotes awareness but also helps fund domestic violence support programs. The program associated with the winning artist will receive a $5,000 grant to further their initiatives.
In-Store Phone Donation Drives
To extend their impact, TCC stores are hosting device donation drives throughout October. Community members are invited to donate any phone, tablet, or device, regardless of its condition. These donations will be refurbished and given to survivors, allowing them to maintain secure connections with family and friends while accessing crucial resources.
Supporting Survivors Through Technology
Through this campaign, donors can contribute to a cause that deeply resonates within the community. Participants will also receive a 20% discount on tech accessories with their donation, making the effort not only beneficial for survivors but rewarding for contributors.
