RMI Management, a property management company, collected 255 cell phones statewide for the Cell Phones for Soldiers program. 

In July, RMI Management began collecting gently used cell phones to be recycled. The proceeds from the recycled phones are being used to purchase calling cards for U.S. soldiers deployed overseas. 

RMI Management will continue to collect cell phones for the Cell Phones for Soldiers program on a continual basis. Gently used, late-model cell phones are preferred. However, any type of cell phone from any carrier may be donated. 

Phones can be dropped off at the following locations: 

• 630 Trade Center Drive, Suite 100, in Las Vegas
• 7951 Deer Springs Way, Suite 170, in North Las Vegas
