Democracy for America Phonecard Appeal

[RogueTrooper]

Last week, we asked for your feedback on Democracy for America, as well as your ideas for the future of our organization. One suggestion that arose several times in the feedback thread was bringing back DeanCorps. We think this is a fantastic idea—DeanCorps was very well received during the campaign and it will help our local communities while once again demonstrating the power of the DFA grassroots community.

We're pleased to be able to introduce several DFACorps initiatives in the coming weeks. The first, culled directly from your suggestions, is to collect phone cards for wounded veterans spending the holidays in VA hospitals. These honored soldiers are often left without the means to make long-distance calls home to their families. These men and women have provided so much for us—it's a small gesture of thanks to offer them a voice at the other end of the line.

Democracy for America will be collecting phone cards from across the nation and distributing them to veterans hospitals in need. In addition, each phone card donation sent into the DFA offices will be matched by Democracy for America. Your $10 card will immediately become $20 worth of phone time! This is a great holiday activity for your local Meetup group to participate in. Please join in our effort to make this time brighter for an injured veteran. Send your phone cards (any denomination) to:

Democracy for America
PO Box 8313
Burlington, VT 05402

Thank you for all that you do!
