Donate Old Smartphone?

I have been hearing how many students are getting the latest and greatest gadgets, which has got me thinking about where all those older gadgets have been going. If they are just collecting dust in a drawer, please consider donating it to the classroom. Later on in the month, our class will be in need of video cameras (smartphones are perfect for this) to use for a class video we will be creating for chapel on May 1st. It would be great to put old smartphones to use for education! Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions about our upcoming video project.
