On Thursday, November 17th, Verizon awarded Centro Romero a contribution of $7,500 in the name of  their HopeLine initiative.  Steve Van Dinter, Public Relations Manager – Great Lakes Market for Verizon and members and volunteers from Centro Romero’s domestic violence department hold the check.

HopeLine from Verizon collects no-longer used wireless phones, batteries, chargers and accessories in any condition from any service provider to benefit victims and survivors of domestic violence. Donated phones are then turned into valuable resources for nonprofit organizations and agencies that support domestic violence victims and survivors nationwide.
