Actually, if you purchase them at the local Army Recruiters office (though they are a little bit more expensive) a portion of the sales does go to the Family Readiness Group. I agree that if you buy the magnet for $1 at Walmart it isn't going to help anyone out besides the corporation. You have to know where you are buying them from is all. I think mine were $6-7 each but I know where the money is going.
