CREDO MOBILE / WORKING ASSETS CHARITY DISTRIBUTION LIST FOR 2009

This is why I love my cell phone company. 1% of yearly profits are distributed to charities based on how the members/subscribers vote.....better than AT&T or Verizon or any other company spending the money I pay them on lobbyist and politicians who don't represent me or my interest. Over 25 years they have handed out over $65 million U.S. Click the header to go to the website and to see the distribution list for the past few years.
