You guys do such an amazing job showing your support for important causes and charities, so we wanted to let you know about the Sony Foundation’s 'You Can' campaign. When we first heard about 'You Can' we knew straightaway that it was a cause we (and hopefully you!) would love to get behind and help.
It’s really easy to get involved and a little bit of effort goes a long, long way.
You Can is an initiative that aims to raise awareness of the youth cancer issue in Australia. They hope to raise $15 million to build six youth cancer centres around the country, the first of which is currently underway in Perth.[size=large]
SO WHAT CAN YOU DO?[/size]
Nope this isn’t about donating money.
You Can need your old mobile phones! If you’ve got an old mobile phone collecting dust in a drawer at home, send it to You Can and they can recycle it and generate funds for their program. What an awesome idea, hey!

- Order an envelop from the You Can website OR
