KANSAS CITY, Mo.The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Foundation announced today that it has received a $50,000 gift from LifeLock, Inc., a leader in identity theft protection services, in support of its VFW Operation Uplink™ “Free Call Days” program.

Since 2006, VFW Operation Uplink™ “Free Call Days” has provided over 3 million free long-distance telephone connections from active duty troops stationed abroad to their families. Service personnel utilize a network of over 860 MWR (SpaWar) Internet cafés in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait to place calls to family and friends in the United States. Call days occur primarily on holidays such as Christmas, Valentine’s and Mother’s Day, etc., with over 1,000,000 average minutes of talk time per event.

LifeLock has committed to sponsor a “Free Call Day” on September 29, 2009 (VFW Day), which highlights the numerous accomplishments of the VFW over its 110-year history. Callers will hear a recorded message announcing that LifeLock is the sponsor of their free call. More information is available at http://www.operationuplink.org/.
