I was wondering the same thing, if anyone has done one of these before and how it went. I have found several companies and the links are as follows:
www.cartridgesforkids.com/
and their phone list:
www.cartridgesforkids.com/pricesframe.html
Which empty cartridges and used cell phones have value?
All cartridges and cell phones listed on our web page at
www.cartridgesforkids.com
have value. If you have one or two cartridges or phones that you are not sure about, go ahead and send them. If you have more than two and you are not sure if they have value, please call us. Remember, prices vary and are subject to change. Prices for cartridges and cell phones are based on supply and demand.

and their phone list:

Remember, only cell phones that are not damaged qualify for rebate; however Greentec will still take the cell phones that are damaged and make sure that they are recycled appropriately.
www.ecophones.com/
and their current list:

Is it true that EcoPhones pays for EVERY phone no matter what?
Yes, EcoPhones pays for EVERY phone - up to $200 per phone - regardless of whether or not the phone(s) work and regardless of whether or not the phone(s) are on our price list. That is, you earn cash for every cell phone you collect including broken phones and phones not on our list. More than 500+ cell phone models have been sold since the advent of cellular technology. Consequently, it is virtually impossible to maintain a comprehensive list of every cell phone. Therefore, our price list includes many of the more common phones and therefore assists organizations in determining which program pays the best overall prices. Prices on our list reflect working phones only. Working phones are phones that power up, possess an undamaged LCD screen, make a test call and are not cracked or otherwise damaged. Non-Working phone models that appear on our price list will be credited 20% of the corresponding working phone price. Working and non-working phones not included on our price list will be credited at competitive prices.

How does the PhoneRaiserâ„¢ program compare to other recycling fundraisers?
For starters PhoneRaiserâ„¢ is EASY and PhoneRaiserâ„¢ pays the highest prices for used cell phones, up to $200 per phone! In addition, PhoneRaiserâ„¢ accepts more makes and models of cell phones than any other program. In fact, even phones sent to us that our not on our current cell phone purchase list may be eligible for payment. Moreover, PhoneRaiserâ„¢ is easy. Lastly, PhoneRaiserâ„¢ and its employees are proud of its outstanding environmental commitment and recognized achievements.
It's hard to tell which one is worth the time. This is just add'l info that was added from their websites. If anyone has ever done a "phone"raiser, please let me know too.
