QUEST COMMERCIAL CONNECTS A LIFELINE FOR DISADVANTAGED NEW YORKERS

New York, NY - Call it a deal that made a difference!

In a transaction best measured by the size of its heart and not its dollar value, Quest Commercial has arranged for its exclusive client, Manhattan mobile phone retailer S Wireless, to serve as the first New York City sites for Phones For Life.

Throughout the US, Phones For Life, Inc. provides emergency use cell phones for the elderly and disabled, and assists various battered women’s' shelters. It arranges phone equipment collections and drives across the U.S. on a continuous basis, reconditions the phones and then redistributes them to the local donor area.

S Wireless has agreed to make nine of their Manhattan stores the New York area drop-off locations for donations and drop-offs of phones and accessories. These are the first drop-off sites that Phones for Life has obtained for its program in New York City, and include convenient locations primarily located throughout Midtown, the Upper East and West Sides. Bobby Singh, President of S Wireless, joined Ray Dorman, President of Phones for Life and Scott Bloom, the Executive Director of Quest Commercial, at a special ceremony in mid-July at the S Wireless store on 427 Second Avenue. The executives dedicated the first box that will be used to collect donated phones.

The concept of linking their client with the charity was developed by Bloom, an active humanitarian who wanted to find a way “to make giving convenient and accessible. When one of our leading brokers, Bonnie Feingold, initiated contact with S Wireless, the connection was ideal, and we negotiated another type of real estate—drop- off boxes—from that point on,” said Bloom. Quest Commercial has also donated space within its headquarters at 360 Lexington
Avenue (16th Floor) to serve as a drop-off location.

“Phones for Life was a natural choice as their donations make 911 convenient and accessible to seniors, especially those that are disadvantaged,” he continued. “According to the Dr. L’Archeveque, founder of Phones for Life, more than 15,000 phones—and counting—have been put into the hands of seniors, who now enjoy a sense of security and access to lifesaving
911 devices.”

“We are grateful that Quest Commercial helped us build a relationship with S Wireless to launch the city’s first Cell Phones for Life program,” said Mr. Dorman. “As a result, we expect to help make the lives of thousands of disadvantaged senior New Yorkers safer by giving them that emergency cell phone lifeline.”

Quest Commercial was launched earlier this year as the commercial brokerage division of Manhattan-based The Quest Group, LLC, becoming New York’s first real estate brokerage services firm to offer full-service real estate capabilities to the middle markets of commercial and retail real estate. The Quest Group also owns Dwelling Quest which for more than a decade, has specialized in all aspects of residential real estate service, including the sale of co-ops and condominiums and apartment rentals.
