AT&T Wireless Services has a fleet of cellular loaner phones and pagers available free for short term use (typically 3-10 days) by bona fide non-profit Colorado 501(c)(3) organizations or neighborhood associations who can clearly show non-profit status. The phones are loaned to support organizations' special events aimed at fund raising or raising community awareness of the organization.
The use of this community loaner fleet is for short term use (suggested to be between one and 14 days) and includes the free use of the cellular/paging equipment and local airtime. Calls to information, long distance if applicable or other charges are the responsibility of the organization receiving the loan. The number of phones/pagers to be loaned will be determined by AT&T Wireless and will be based on the availability of phones/pagers and the organization's particular needs.
The organization is responsible for returning the equipment in good working order and is responsible for loss, theft or damage to said equipment. If the equipment is lost, stolen or significantly damaged, the organization is responsible for the cost of replacing the equipment.
In the event of a major public emergency/disaster, the recipient organization must agree in advance to return the phone(s) prior to the previously agreed return date and within 4 hours of request. Additionally, future loans may not be available as promised in the event of such an emergency.
The fleet is not be used for religious organizations in any way. The fleet is not be used for political purposes. Any request for cellular phones by a political candidate, city or county agency or other government agency must be referred to the Government Affairs Manager, who will review the request.
