Give an iPod
There's a huge need for ipod donations at many public and private nursing homes, where the interest from patients who miss their favorite music is far greater than the arrival of donated iPods to our collection centers.
For this reason we especially ask that around the holidays or whenever you consider buying new devices, or would like to make a charitable donation of your old iPod or the purchase of a new one, that you consider donating your old devices to our program rather than throwing them away. Many grateful patients will appreciate your generosity! NOTE: If you are an Apple employee, you can use your Apple employee matching benefit to help twice as many people enjoy the gift of music in their lives! iPod Donation Mail-In & Drop-off address: Music & Memory Donations 160 1st Street PO Box #590 Mineola, New York 11501 Contact Dan Cohen at [email protected] or 917 923-5636. Regional iPod Drop-off Donation Centers: We'll accept old, new, used, and even broken or damaged iPod players that our volunteer team can check and repair if possible for use in one of our centers. Our residents don't mind a few case scratches or decals.
