The Sharon K Pacheco Foundation is committed to connecting military service members with their loved ones back home. For years we have spent an average of $30 for a 200-minute pre-paid phone card, which ultimately provided around 20 minutes of talk-time to our service men and women.
Expensive international rates have made it financially difficult for military families wishing to stay connected, and email is very impersonal. With ACN's new digital video phone, military service members can simply plug in their ethernet broadband cable to the back of the video phone and place a call to their loved ones back home as if they were simply calling next door! No international rates! No long-distance charges! No limited pre-paid minutes! And all for less than what the average American is paying for their average land line. The cost is merely $29.99 per month and includes unlimited local and long-distance calling from anywhere in the world, including Iraq and Afghanistan.
Recently, a soldier stationed in Baghdad, was deployed shortly before his wife entered the hospital to give birth to their first child. Calling daily to check on her well-being, their phone bill quickly escalated to over $2000 - a bill they simply could not afford to pay - which resulted in a disconnection.
The soldier's wife purchased a video phone and we shipped one to her husband in Baghdad. The day she went into the hospital, she plugged into the hospital's broadband connection and the soldier received permission to call her and coach her through her delivery, which also afforded him the incredible opportunity to be there for his wife and actually see his newborn son! A moment they could not have shared without ACN's video phone!
In appreciation for your service, the Sharon K Pacheco Foundation would like to offer you the opportunity to connect to your loved ones by offering a rebate to service members who subscribe to the ACN video phone service.
Here are the details:
The service member will need to sign up through our ACN website link (CLICK HERE), and have the phone services put in your name. A credit/debit card will be required to pay for the initial cost of the phone, first month's service, activation fee, and shipping/handling to establish service (approx. $200). Other ACN restrictions may apply to qualify for service.
Once the order is placed, the SKP Foundation will issue a rebate check to the address on the order for the equivalent of the phone cost, activation fee and shipping/handling, so all you pay for is the monthly service of $29.99 per month.
Other restrictions apply and are listed on the ACN website when you place your order.
