**THEME OF CARD: The card features a healthy John Kirby and his wife Betty holding each other on the dance floor at their daughter Kathy Dobbels wedding. They are set against a gradient gray background. Two red roses are in the upper right and The John Kirby Transplant Fund is written in the upper left. This very special card was donated to the fund by Tell-One and comes in a clear plastic clamshell package attached to an informational insert donated by PCI. The insert card that the heart is attached to tells a little about John Kirby and the back tells of a fabulous organization, Coalition on Donation.
The Coalition on Donation is not associated with The John Kirby Fund and does not endorse or support any individual transplant fund. This organization's information is included to aid in your understanding and allow you to readily obtain information concerning organ and tissue donation. You can see this very special card here:

**STORY BEHIND THE CARD: This card is designed to bring to light the opportunity every individual has to change the life of another human being. The goal is to ensure that everyone understands the need for organ and tissue donation. John Kirby needs the opportunity to be with his family and just one person, maybe someone you know, could make a difference. This card is offered, for a donation, to help with the enormous costs associated with a surgical procedure and dialysis that John must endure every week of his life while waiting for a kidney that can return to his life some semblance of normalcy. Not to mention provide you with a beautiful collector phone card.
Many people have taken the first step and become donors but5did you realize that if you do not share your decision with your family and friends your decision may go unheeded. Your family must be aware of your decision and agree to it when asked.

AT&T Canada's traffic on Phonetime's network will be worth between $2 million and $5 million in revenue in the next two years, according to Wayne Silver, Phonetime International's Vice-President. "AT&T Canada's decision to use Phonetime's switching platform confirms the decision we have made in owning our own technology to serve this fast growing industry," said Silver. "The AT&T Canada relationship also advances Phonetime's credibility as one of Canada's leading phonecard companies, when one of Canada's premier telecommunications companies routes their network traffic through our prepaid phonecard switch and customer service facility."
"Phonetime is one of the few companies in Canada with its own high capacity prepaid telephone switching platform and call centre, which is one of the reasons AT&T Canada moved its traffic to us," Silver added. Phonetime recently invested more than $250,000 in a new, state-of-the-art high capacity switch manufactured by Voiceware Industries of West Palm Beach, Florida. With the new AT&T Canada traffic, Silver said that Phonetime would again double capacity and has invested an additional $100,000 in infrastructure. Earlier this month, Phonetime opened its own call centre, where Phonetime's staff provide customer service 24 hours per day, seven days per week to both Phonetime and AT&T Canada customers. When fully configured, Phonetime's switch will handle in excess of 10 million minutes per month of long distance traffic. In addition, Phonetime has connected its switching platform to the Internet to provide its wholesale customers with access to the platform for the enhancement of their own customer service.
"This agreement is a significant moment for Phonetime," Silver said. "We started in the phonecard business at its inception in Canada in 1994. We have acquired other prepaid long distance companies such as Call Select, developed relations with major retailers, produced promotional phonecards for some of Canada's largest companies and can now service large-scale retail/business phonecard programs such as AT&T Canada's. In the next few years we intend to be an industry consolidator as we grow our wholesale business and acquire additional prepaid long distance companies."

The multi-functional prepaid card will be available at participating Mobil stations and retail store locations nationwide.
Mobil designed this strategic alliance with MCI Communications to combine a convenient long distance calling card feature with its successful prepaid GO Card. The Mobil GO Card will allow customers to make long distance calls from any phone in the U.S. -- public or private, touch-tone or rotary -- to virtually anywhere in the world.
Faster and more convenient than cash or credit, customers using the card at Mobil locations can pay right at the pump or at the register for gas, food, or repairs, with nothing to sign and no waiting for change. The Mobil GO Card will be offered in $25, $50, and $100 denominations. When the value is depleted, customers can call and "re-charge" the GO Card for future use.
"Our customers have told us that they want fast, convenient purchases," said Lenn Eason, Mobil's North America Marketing & Refining Credit Card Manager. "Mobil has been offering the popular GO Card, a prepaid card for gasoline, products, and services at Mobil stations. With this agreement, we now offer phone, food, and fuel all in one stop. It's another exciting way Mobil is creating a better buying experience for our customers."
"The combination of Mobil and MCI in the retail prepaid card market is an ideal match and a win for consumers," said Charles Wiggs, Executive Director and General Manager, MCI PrePaid. "Distribution of the Mobil GO Cards at convenient Mobil locations makes them easy for anyone to purchase, and Mobil's selection of MCI ensures that long distance customers will receive the highest quality network and consumer service in the industry today."
MCI, headquartered in Washington, D.C., is one of the world's largest and fastest growing diversified communications companies. Under the terms of the multi-million dollar agreement with Mobil, MCI will provide a complete range of advanced services including network transmission, 24 hour-a-day, 7 day-a-week multi-lingual customer support, and marketing materials.
Mobil Corp. is a leading oil, natural gas, and petrochemicals company with operations in more than 140 countries. The company markets gasoline in 28 states and the District of Columbia through more than 7,700 branded service stations.
