The Anna Police Department is proud to announce our partnership with the non-profit organization, Secure the Call!
This partnership began thanks to a local Girl Scout working on a community service project. She introduced our department to Secure the Call, coordinated the initial partnership and even helped install the donation bin now located in the Anna PD lobby. We appreciate her hard work and dedication to helping others in our community!
Secure the Call’s mission is simple:
➡️ Recycle old cell phones and tablets
➡️ Help connect domestic violence victims and senior citizens to emergency services
➡️ Keep electronic waste out of landfills
Did you know?
• Any charged cell phone can call 911 — even without an active service plan.
• Millions of seniors and domestic violence victims lack reliable access to emergency communication.
• Over 151 million cell phones are thrown away each year in the United States.
How you can help:
Donate your old phones at the Anna Police Department lobby inside the Anna Municipal Complex
Look for the green donation bin pictured below.
Your donation could:
• Help someone contact emergency services in a crisis
• Support victims and seniors in need
• Reduce electronic waste
• Qualify as a tax-deductible donation

From all of us at Anna Police Department, thank you!
