If you are thinking of replacing your cell phone with a new one this Christmas, Sheriff Patrick Ray is asking you to please donate your old one to the Genesis House so that victims of domestic violence may have a cell phone to call 911 as they need assistance.
Sheriff Ray says the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department is the collection point for your donation of cell phones and battery chargers.
The Genesis House mission is to promote the general welfare of victims of domestic violence and sexual assault by providing shelter, goods, and services.
If you are a victim of abuse, the Genesis House has a 24 hour crisis hotline at 1-800-707-5197
