Persons who want to support members of the armed forces have a new way to do just that. The Army and Air Force Exchange Service will deliver AAFES gift cards to service members and their families stationed around the world for free. By logging on to the AAFES Web site at www.aafes.com, or calling (877) 770-4438 toll-free, individuals can donate gift cards or certificates for as much as $500 to specific persons in uniform, or to “any service member.” The cards and certificates are then distributed to recipients through the Air Force Aid Society, American Red Cross, or Fisher House Foundation. The cards and certificates can be redeemed at any military exchange or catalog.
