Cox Chevrolet is teaming up with Braden River High School to raise awareness for a not-for-profit
organization called Cell Phones for Soldiers. Cell Phones for Soldiers hopes to turn old cell phones
into more than 12 million minutes of prepaid calling cards for U.S. troops stationed overseas. The
phones are sent to ReCellular, which pays Cell Phones for Soldiers for each donated phone enough
to provide an hour of talk time to soldiers abroad. Cox Chevrolet and Braden River High School are
competing with other Tampa Bay General Motors franchises and schools for a chance to win a free
in-school concert by the country band Steel Magnolia. Drop of locations are at Cox Chevrolet and
Braden River High School in Student Services.

The program starts April 1st and runs through 12:00 noon April 15th.
