Operation Freedom Calls
 


At TDS, we are proud to have launched "Operation Freedom Calls" (also known as Operation Connect), a no cost video-conferencing service to families who have loved ones serving overseas. Partnering with the Freedom Calls Foundation, along with other organizations such as local chambers and VFWs in various TDS markets, the program provides care packages and live, face-to-face communication magic for area residents in Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan.
