Wounded Soldiers In Need

Recently promoted by Hugh Hewitt and deserves repeating:

Please also consider the following: The number ONE request at Walter Reed hospital is phone cards. The government doesn't pay long distance phone charges and these wounded soldiers are rationing their calls home. Many will be there throughout the holidays.

They say they need an "endless" supply of these -- any amount, even $5, is greatly appreciated. Wal-Mart has good prices on AT&T cards, Sam’s Club is even better, if you are a member. Send phone cards of any amount to:

Medical Family Assistance Center
Walter Reed Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001


TOPICS: Government; Military/Veterans; Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS: soldiers; walterreed; wounded
May have already been aware of the need, but I just wanted to keep this going. Other things you can do is place boxes for shipping items at work and church. I have three going right now.
