UTC Police Gift Electronics to Those Affected by Abuse

At the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, the Police Department is once again stepping up to support victims of domestic abuse and sexual assault.

For the third consecutive year, they’ve partnered with the 911 Cell Phone Bank to collect old electronic devices for a meaningful cause.

“The purpose of this is many times victims have their phones destroyed by the person who is victimizing them, and they have no way to communicate. So, we provide them with a free phone that has two months’ worth of cell service to help them get out of these situations and get to start a new life”. said Sgt. Ken Lloyd
