CREDO Mobile is a cell phone company that supports liberal (progressive) nonprofit groups. Users agree to have 1% of their charges contribute to liberal groups like Planned Parenthood, Rainforest Action Network, Human Rights Watch, the ACLU and more.[1]
"Credo Mobile, a division of the liberal firm Working Assets, has partnered with Democracy for America, a progressive political action committee born of Howard Dean’s presidential campaign, to create DFA Wireless. When subscribers make a call on a DFA Wireless phone, 10 percent of their monthly charges will go to Democracy for America."[2]
