The Corporal J.R. Spears Detachment of the Marine Corps League, along with our many sponsors, is proud to announce our new cell phone program, HELP OUR HEROES CALL HOME. In order to meet the ongoing changes in our military’s mission, Help Our Heroes Call Home will not only be providing calling cards for our troops deployed around the world, but, in addition, for those service men and women being treated in our military hospitals and assisted by the USO. This program encourages participation by individuals and companies to collect old cell phones, which are then sent to a recycler, who, in turn, pays the J.R. Spears Detachment. The money received from the recycler is used to purchase calling cards which are then distributed to our troops. The Marine Corps League is a veterans’ service organization recognized by the IRS and all donations are tax deductible. |
