Phone Home Program

Phone Home Program Active Duty Air Force members of all ranks, single and married, who will be deployed for over 30 days are eligible to receive a pre-paid $20 phone card for use while deployed. Guard and Reserve members who are activated under Title 10 orders for over 30 days are also eligible to participate in this program. This program makes it possible for the service member to "phone home" to family or friends during deployment and to make emergency contacts when necessary, without added expense to the service member. Additionally, family members at the home base with unique problems may be eligible to receive a card.

Contact your local Airman & Family Readiness Center or First Sergeant at your deployed location to receive a card.

We received the following e-mail from an Airman stationed in Iraq:

AFAS, I am currently stationed in Baghdad and received a phone card from AFAS. I want to take moment and thank your organization for this service. The ability to talk to our loved ones at home is a gift that can’t have a monetary value placed on it. When I talk to my wife I am able to thank her for all of her support and feel like I am still a part of her life. Thanks for all
that you do.
