Operation Lifeline
Help us share the love!
When the pandemic hit in March of 2020, we realized people were going to be isolated from their family and friends, and so we wanted to step in and help out. We were committed to helping our community stay connected through the pandemic. Patients with COVID-19 were being quarantined in their hospital beds and residents in care homes were being isolated without any visitors. It's crucial that these people were able to connect with their family and friends through these unprecedented circumstances. We made a difference with "Operation Lifeline". To date, we've donated hundreds of devices to over 50 facilities across the province.
Phones are still being sanitized and refurbished before being delivered to hospitals, care homes and at-risk youth. People receiving these phones are able to FaceTime or Skype, connecting them with family and friends. For some, these phones and tablets are being utilized as a tool to help them carry out their day-to-day activities.
Although we're moving through the Covid-19 pandemic, Operation Lifeline continues to play a vital role in our community. Donated phones and tablets are being sent out across the province to those that need them most.
If your hospital, care home facility or organization is interested in receiving donated devices, please contact us today by calling 306-668-4653. If you have an old phone or tablet you don't use anymore, consider donating it to Operation Lifeline. Help us give by donating your old devices today!
Bolt Mobile donates $5000 award to Operation Lifeline
We are so honoured to be nominated and to be a recipient of the Conexus Credit Union Kindness Capital Fund for our work with Operation Lifeline! We received $5000 that put right back into the program to help more and more people in Saskatchewan!
We purchased 15 iPads and 5 tablets to help fulfill the demand throughout Saskatchewan. Together with the Saskatchewan Health Authority, we've now donated several hundred devices to over 50 hospitals, care homes and facilities across the province. We're super proud of our team for stepping up to make a difference in helping connect patients and residents with their loved ones.
Thanks again to Conexus for the great work you're doing in our community as it helps us continue to do what we're doing. #InThisTogether
How To Donate
That old phone sitting in your junk drawer at home can make a difference in someone's life today. Please ensure the phone is wiped to factory and in good working condition (no cracked screen or broken buttons). Please sanitize the device thoroughly and place in a Ziploc bag.
Once received, our team will again sanitize each device thoroughly and ensure everything is ready to go for the recipient.
You can drop off devices at any of our four Bolt Mobile locations in Saskatoon without ever leaving your vehicle. Simply pull up, give us a call, and one of our associates will safely receive your donation.
Your donation is very much appreciated. View our store locations below.
