A collection drive to help provide calling cards to soldiers stationed overseas was a huge success, according to one of the organizers Rich Blackburn of Liberty Tax Service in Centerville.
Liberty Tax Service and members of the Blue Star Mothers, Miami Valley Chapter recently spent a day collecting more than 1,000 phones from more than 300 people. Both groups wanted to thank the community for their generosity. Because of the effort, Liberty Tax was able to give an initial distribution of 200 international calling cards to the Blue Star Mothers, so that they in turn can give those cards to the troops to use to call back home. Blackburn said more cards are forthcoming."
