I often hear pitches to donate old cell phones to charity, such as
shelters.

If the carriers won't activate old phones, how can a charitable
organization use them?

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Many of those older phones can
dial 911 in any event, so the users who are able to speak for
themselves can converse with police dispatchers, etc. PAT]
