Lucy Lawless Phone Cards

I'm holding in my hot little hand the 1998 Limited Edition IHC Phonecard
that features the goddess herself Lucy Lawless. I'm much more a Xena fan
than a LL fan but I had to get myself one of these phonecards. The
phonecard itself has Lucy and a young person with an intellectual
disability grinning away together. The phonecard comes in a folder (10cm
X 10 cm) that is covered with these lovely photos of Lucy dancing,
hanging out and having a great time with a group of young people.

The phonecards are a fundraising venture for the IHC (a national
charitable organisation that provides services and advocacy for people
with intellectual disabilities). After seeing a friend's phonecard, I
gave the IHC a call here in Auckland and they have 2000 (well 1999 as I
ordered one) left of the original 10, 000. They cost $25 NZ (roughly
$12.50 US) it's basically $5 for the phonecard and a $20 donation to IHC.

To buy your own phonecard, and its 'first in first served' until the
2000 are sold:
