Good Call, a Dundee-based dedicated mobile social enterprise in Scotland, aims to save nonprofits, charities and community groups hundreds of thousands of pounds on low-cost mobile phone handsets and contracts, leaving their staff worry-free to support their beneficiaries.
The social enterprise will recruit staff from disadvantaged or marginalized groups and provide 'supplier' training to charities.
According to mobile communications entrepreneur Colin Loveday, by "removing the buying process friction point, we can return hundreds of thousands of pounds back into the charitable sector, while allowing charities to focus on their key objectives, carrying out the work that is so important to them."
