Palm sets up their "Palm Connections" program to support good causes

Now that money isn't too much of a concern for Palm seeing that HP is taking good care of them, the longtime smartphone company is doing their part to help the community with the launch of their “Palm Connections” program.

In helping out communities throughout the country, Palm decided to offer 500 Palm Pre Plus smartphones with $150,000 of service to help specific charities and organizations across the country. Each of the Palm Pre Plus units being given away will come included with $300 of Verizon Wireless cell phone service.

With the program, Palm intends on supporting a handful of “good causes” that include things like sustainability advocates, charities, and eco-entrepreneurs. They're going to post stories from the various people who submit them and place them on their Palm Connections Facebook page. From there, users can read all about the good cause that their handsets will be impacting.
