operations call home. The Defense Department has authorized the Armed Services
Exchanges to sell prepaid calling cards to any individual or organization that
wishes to purchase cards for troops who are deployed. The Help Our Troops Call
Home program is designed to help servicemembers call home from Operations Iraqi
Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.
For those wishing to donate a prepaid calling card to a military member may log
on to any of the three Armed Services Exchange web sites: the Army and Air Force
Exchange Service http://www.aafes.com/, the Navy Exchange Service Command
http://www.navynex.com/, and the Marine Corps Exchange http://www.usmcmccs.org/.
Click the Help Our Troops Call Home link. From there, a prepaid calling card may
be purchased for an individual at his or her deployed address or to any service
member deployed or hospitalized. The Armed Services Exchanges will distribute
cards donated to any service member through the American Red Cross, Air Force
Aid Society and the Fisher House Foundation.
The Armed Services Exchanges operate telephone call centers in Iraq, Kuwait,
Afghanistan, and other countries and aboard ships anywhere servicemembers are
deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom.
All of these locations stay busy around the clock to keep up communication
between deployed troops and their loved ones. The cards available through the
Help Our Troops Call Home program offer the best value for calls made from the
call centers, never expire, and there are no added charges or connection fees.
Individuals and organizations also can show their support to deployed troops and
their families with gift certificates. The Gift of Groceries program allows
anyone to purchase commissary gift certificates at http://www.commissaries.com
or by calling toll free 1 (877) 770GIFT. The Armed Services Exchanges offer the
Gift From the Homefront gift certificate for merchandise at these exchange web
sites: http://www.aafes.com and http://www.navynex.com or by calling toll free
1 (877) 770GIFT. Gift certificates may be purchased to be mailed to
servicemembers and family members or will be distributed to any servicemember.
Only authorized commissary and exchange patrons may redeem the gift certificates
at military commissaries and exchanges, including those stores supporting
deployed personnel around the globe.
