More Than A Phone keeps survivors of domestic violence connected.

How does it work?

More Than a Phone is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit that partners with domestic violence programs across the U.S. to provide reliable and safe smartphones to the survivors they serve. Their program helps those in need stay connected to the world around them so they can build a strong foundation to support themselves and their families. The smartphones survivors receive help them stay in touch with personal contacts, search for a job, and gain independence without their abuser tracking them. Through volunteerism and victim advocacy, our goal is to cultivate community across the U.S. and give survivors more than just a phone.
TCC employees partner with their community’s domestic violence shelter to put the “MORE” in More Than a Phone. Through volunteering opportunities, advocacy and device support, our employees enhance the collaboration created by bringing the More Than a Phone program to their local shelter. Additionally, the domestic violence shelter is invited to educate store employees throughout the year. Visit www.morethanaphone.org to learn more.

Meet Daniel, our district manager from Oregon.

Daniel Varela and his team have a strong partnership with the Women’s Crisis Support Team (WCST). Throughout the past few years, they’ve supported WCST in a number of ways like volunteering at their shelter, TCC Gives Community Grants, hosting special events during Domestic Violence Awareness Month and partnering with them through More Than a Phone. They often have customers come in who have received a More Than a Phone device and are ready to start paying for service on their own.
Daniel says, “The amount of courage and strength it takes to stand up and leave the abusive situation you are in is unmatched. For these people to not only do that but persevere and get back on their feet to a point where they can become financially responsible for their own phone is truly inspiring.”
Daniel and his whole team have shown their community that this program can go beyond a phone and provide even more!

Every October, our stores are dedicated to raising awareness about domestic violence.
We give our employees special purple gear to wear in support of the cause. This month is our opportunity to educate our customers and get them involved with the ultimate goal of ending domestic violence.
