2012 Cards for A Cause ~ JULY MISSION ~ Stamp from the Heart!
ORGANIZATION BEING FEATURED:
Card Cupids
This month we are featuring Card Cupids. Card Cupid's mission is to provide Happy Mail Packages and Birthday Bundles to children who are facing difficult challenges in their young lives regardless of their economic background.
This organization will use our handmade cards and combine them with goodies such as stuffed animals and coloring/activity books sending them to children in need for their birthday or during a difficult time such illness or hospitalization. We will help to make sure that each child�s birthday is celebrated and that children in the hospital or facing illness receive happy mail to brighten their day. A child can be referred by a friend, family member, teacher, social worker or other agency.
~ Please send only cheerful cards, not get well cards. Below is a list of sentiments that would be perfect.
~ Because the children we send Card Cuddle Care Packages come from all different backgrounds, please do not send religious cards.
~ Envelopes are not required. However, if you do include an envelope, please do not seal them as the parent or guardian may want to preview the cards before giving them to the child.
~ There are no size requirements for the cards
Sentiment suggestions:

Bless your heart Maggie. I live outside of Nashville and we continue to have record breaking temps. I can't even begin to imagine not having power. Glad you survived!

Okay, trying to clarify. Are we supposed to sign our names in the cards? The instructions above say that we are supposed to. When I checked the website, there is no mention of putting your name in the card. Just want to make sure that I'm sending what is needed. Thanks for the info!

A lot of them are not age or gender specific so they will work for a lot of our requests.
