AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 6, 2025 ~ Cell Phones for Soldiers (CPFS), a national nonprofit dedicated to providing cost-free communication services and connectivity support to veterans and active-duty military members, has announced the signing of a lease for its new national headquarters in Austin, Texas. This move marks a significant step forward in the organization's mission to bridge the digital divide for America's bravest.

The new facility not only represents growth for CPFS, but also signifies a commitment to operational excellence through cutting-edge automation technologies and strategic partnerships. By investing in robotics and advanced technology, CPFS will be able to internalize its phone donation processing operations, reducing overhead costs and increasing transparency. This will allow more funds to directly serve veterans.

With a customizable suite of software and robotics solutions enhanced by proprietary AI and machine learning, CPFS will have unmatched efficiency and quality assurance in processing, recycling, and repurposing donated devices. This transformative technology will give the nonprofit full inventory control and end-to-end transparency with its donors.

According to Rob Bergquist, Co-Founder of Cell Phones for Soldiers, "Internalizing our operations supported by advanced technology allows us to make informed decisions that better serve our mission. Every dollar we maximize with better technology and streamlined operations is a dollar that goes directly toward changing a veteran's life."

CPFS's impact is amplified through collaborations with industry-leading partners such as Apex Wireless, Patriot Mobile, Sequoia Wireless, and OnComms. These partnerships ensure national coverage and enable the organization to stay agile, scalable, and responsive to the unique connectivity needs of veterans nationwide.

Currently, CPFS has 4,000 mobile lines available for veterans with a goal to connect at least 30,000 veterans in the next three years. The nonprofit will take a major step toward that goal on August 8-9th when it teams up with strategic partner Sequoia Wireless to provide free phones and service to 600 homeless veterans in San Diego.

"Investing in strategic, mission-aligned partners scales our impact beyond just one device or one call—we're building a national network of care," said CPFS Executive Director Rob Bergquist. "From mental health to housing to employment, we are connecting veterans to life-saving resources."

In today's hyper-connected world, access to communication is more than a convenience—it's a lifeline. CPFS is determined to make sure veterans never feel alone in times of crisis. With over 150,000 veterans dying by suicide since 9/11, the need for access to mental health support is urgent. As a cornerstone of its mission, CPFS ensures that every veteran it serves has access to crisis lines and comprehensive connectivity solutions for healthcare, employment, housing support, and vital family connections.

"Cell Phones for Soldiers is the bridge—connecting veterans to the resources that save lives," added Rob Bergquist. "We aren't just providing cell phones—we are providing hope, support, and the chance to make a different decision in their darkest hour."

Since its founding in 2004, Cell Phones for Soldiers has grown into a national force for good and continues to evolve to meet the challenges faced by our veteran community. With this latest move to Austin and new investments in automation, strategic partnerships, and donor transparency, CPFS is setting the foundation for the next 20 years of impact.
