2011 Cards for A Cause
~ DECEMBER MISSION ~
Stamp from the Heart!

ORGANIZATION BEING FEATURED:

West Middle School
Gurnee, Ill.

This month we are helping a fellow SCSer make a difference in some young people's lives. Sharon (vlasak) is involved with an on-going program through the local schools in her area whereby they raise funds and send cards to those in need. Sharon works with 6th graders in a very high risk area -violence, gangs, poverty, shelter living etc. Their mission is to teach the value of giving. They work with the kids to sending all types of cards to military, nursing homes and childrens hospitals. Sharon works with 6th graders but also has younger kids help as part of a service learning project in the elementary school.

Many students have a VERY hard time with learning the value of giving but its proven to be a very successful endeavor. Its success has resulted in the program being combined with the high school which in turn will reach more and more students. Cards are needed to keep the giving going!

CONTACT PERSON:
Cindy ~ Fellow SCSer (Mothermark)

REFERRED BY:
Vlasak (Sharon)

TYPE OF CARDS REQUESTED:

Any and all cards. Card fronts are welcome. Cards that can be used for any occasion all year round. You may even send incomplete cards/kits/supplies as in those situations, Sharon also works with the kids to complete/finish up making the cards.

SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS:

None

ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Please include an envelope with each card for purposes of convenience. Since these cards will be given to students to give to others, they should be blank inside.

MAILING ADDRESS:

We are sending the cards directly to Sharon instead of the school as she is distributing them to more than one school. That address is as follows:

Sharon Clark
