The value doesn't stop with all the features found in the Spirit 4G

MetroPCS and LG are also kicking off the All-Star Spirit campaign,
which benefits After-School All-Stars (ASAS), a non-profit
organization dedicated to providing academic support, enrichment
opportunities and health & fitness activities that equip
participants with skills, experiences and relationships needed to
succeed in middle school, high school, college and the 21st century
workforce. MetroPCS and LG are supporting ASAS' efforts to provide
high-school readiness and after-school programming to middle schoolers
to put them on the path toward graduation. Every LG Spirit 4G
purchased online and in ASAS markets* will contribute to the donation
that will have a direct impact on children involved in ASAS
programming. More information about the campaign, which begins next
week, can be found at www.metropcs.com/ASAS.

www.metropcs.com for $199 plus tax after $70 mail-in rebate for a
limited time.
