Michael C.

I received my cell phone from Cell Phones for Soldiers while I was in a VA rehabilitation program. At the time, I was broke, homeless, without a phone, and feeling hopeless. Thanks to God, America, and the VA, I was given a phone through Cell Phones for Soldiers. Having that phone allowed me to immediately connect with an extensive health care team that literally saved my life. While I was in rehab, I was diagnosed with cancer. Cell Phones for Soldiers made it possible for me to stay in constant contact with my health care team throughout my treatment. Nine months later, after a successful operation and six months of chemotherapy, I am still alive, hopeful, and deeply thankful for all the blessings that Cell Phones for Soldiers and the VA continue to provide. Again, God bless America.
