Verizon Community Service Opportunity for Public to Help Domestic Violence Victims


Community



This is a sponsored post

One of the best things about working in social media and writing this blog is being a member of the Verizon Wireless Lifestyle Blogger team. In this capacity over the past two plus years not only have I received all kinds of tech gear -- like the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the LG G2 smartphones, Mophie mobile charger and lots more -- to facilitate reviews. I've also learned about all the various ways Verizon gives back to the community, something that's definitely worth sharing with readers.


Me & friends at Verizon party in Chicago, Image by WellConnectedMom.com
Verizon Wireless indeed is deeply ingrained in corporate social responsibility CSR in big ways across the U.S. They're also involved in a multitude of smaller, equally important, badly needed community support activities in local communities. These initiatives range from encouraging and nurturing employees as volunteers to formal pro bono programs to its high profile domestic violence outreach program, known as HopeLine.




Domestic Violence Epidemic

In today's hostile society, Verizon's HopeLine has really made a difference and is worthy of particular mention. Statistically 1 in 4 women, 1 in 7 men and 3 million children are impacted by domestic violence in some shape or form. These victims endure not only mental abuse, but also horrific physical torture and bodily injuries. At the extreme, abuse manifests itself as a threat of death as I heard first-hand from the true life story told at a Verizon event during BlogHer, told by a wife and mother who was shot repeatedly by her husband and luckily survived.


MommyBlogExpert.com
What Verizon is Doing 

Since 2001 Verizon has supported the fight against domestic violence by
  • Collecting 10.8 million mobile phones
  • Contributing $21.4 million in grants to domestic violence organizations
  • Giving 180,000 HopeLine phones to victims and their survivors

Old Verizon Cell Phone, MommyBlogExpert.com

Phones donated to Verizon are refurbished and sold for reuse to raise funds to aid the cause. Rebuilt mobile devices are also contributed to domestic violence organizations and local government and law enforcement agencies serving at-risk individuals. Each phone is pre-loaded with 3000 minutes of phone and text-messaging services and then provided to those who need them as a safe way to call for help.


There's also a green element to their noble effort. According to Verizon's website, "Unsalvageable phones are recycled in an environmentally sound way under a zero landfill policy." 


UHopeline is Verizon's Way of Reaching Out to College Students...




How You Can Help HopeLine

There are several ways the public can donate old cell  phones and accessories including dropping the phone off at your neighborhood Verizon Wireless store, donating at an
organized HopeLine mobile phone drive or mailing it in with a pre-paid postage label.

Parenting Tips to Deal With Teen Drug Abuse

Parenting


Guest Post
by Scott Brand
Inspirations for Youth




5 Parenting Strategies to Head Off Teen Substance Abuse


It is a known fact that there are no shortages of ways teens can get drugs. With the legalization of marijuana for recreation use in Colorado -- and most likely other states following suit soon --the job of parents is getting progressively more difficult. 

With the odds stacked high, modern moms and dads definitely need as much of an advantage as possible to be there for your teenagers.




Key ways parents can help teens avoid abusing drugs 


Teach your child different ways to say “No!”

It is fairly certain that at some point in time a teen will be offered drugs by a friend or classmate. Many times the teen does not want to partake in this activity, but does anyway in a vain attempt to fit in. Parents can do some role playing with their teens early on and provide them with responses to friends who may offer them drugs and teach them how to say no 

Provide your teen with a healthy list of chores

Cleaning their room, mowing the lawn, etc. The less free time they have to loiter, the less chance they have to start hanging out with the wrong crowd 

Have punctual and regular dinner times with your teenagers

Teens will know they can’t use drugs before a pre-scheduled 6 pm dinner every evening

Plan outings often including the entire family

Sign your family up to a tennis club or go out on daytime outings with your kids to strengthen the family bond and substitute potentially detrimental activities with wholesome ones 

Don’t be afraid to check their online activity, especially social media sites

As long as they live under your roof, this will make it clear that your teen's right to privacy is not an option

Unless otherwise indicated images in this post from Fox Home Entertainment

Enter the Walking With Dinosaurs Bluray DVD GIVEAWAY

Prior to its release on the big screen last year, I was invited to cover a press event for Walking With Dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum of L.A. County. Now I'm back to tell you about the newly released family friendly Blu-ray and DVD that's now available for home viewing.

Here's a movie that kids will watch again and again into and beyond summer -- discovering something new and fascinating each time it is viewed.

Walking With Dinosaurs is loaded with interactive features and fun, bringing education about the Jurassic Period to new heights. Simply put it is widely regarded as the most realistic motion picture ever made about the magnificent dinosaurs that walked the Earth 70 million years ago.


Directed by Barry Cook (MulanArthur Christmas) and Neil Nightingale (Meerkats: The Movie), this fantastic computer generated animated feature showcases the talent and voices of John Leguizamo (Ice AgeRio 2), Justin Long (Alvin and the ChipmunksDodgeball), Karl Urban (Star Trek) and others.

What a thrill it was for me to meet and talk with some of the Walking With Dinosaurs actors including John Leguizamo, Skyler Stone and Tiya Sircar prior to the movie's theatrical opening in December.
