Gifts from the Homefront available at NEXCOM

Navy Supply Corps Newsletter, July-August, 2004

As a way to say thank you to the men and women in our armed forces for serving their country, the Navy Exchange Service Command now has Gifts from the Homefront gift certificates available for purchase. These gift certificates can be redeemed at any military exchange around the world, including those supporting Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom.

"Gifts from the Homefront are an easy and convenient way for anyone to support our men and women in the armed forces," said Chuck Early, Navy Exchange Service marketing specialist. "We had several requests over the holidays from people wanting to show their appreciation for those who serve our country. Now, with the purchase of these gift certificates, anyone can send their thanks to any military member around the world."

There are three ways to send a Gifts from the Homefront gift certificate to a member of the armed forces. First, one can be sent to an individual active duty military member or their family directly to their home. For those who want to send a gift certificate to anyone in the armed forces, gift certificates can be purchased and sent to either of two nonprofit military organizations that will distribute them to those in need.

The Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society, a private, charitable organization that supports America's Sailors, Marines and their families, can identify individuals or families who have the greatest need for these gift certificates. Finally, a gift certificate sent to The Fisher House Foundation, Inc., which supports military personnel wounded in action and those who are seriously ill being treated in a military hospital in the U.S. or overseas, can ease the burden of military personnel and their families during recovery.

Gift certificates can be personalized with a special message. They are available in $5, $10, $25, $50, $100 and $250 denominations and can be ordered in four convenient ways: online at www.navy-nex.com, by phone at 1 (877) 770-GIFT (4438), by fax at 1 (877) 770-3234 or by mail at CertifiChecks, Inc., Attn: Order Processing; 1435 Shoup Mill Rd., Suite A, Dayton, OH 45414.
