20 cards going to the post office today. Really enjoyed making cards for this cause!

Apologies for being late - we had to get my laptop set up for access and printing - while we're working through rebuilding my desktop from a nasty virus bite. Box going postal tomorrow morning. Tracking number: 9405803699300598416047.

Hi everyone, after promising to do a better job of acknowledging when the packages of cards came in I ended up in the hospital for several days. I came home to several packages. Cards came in from Jeri Price, Deb Pollock, Andrea Sharp, Sharon Hendrian, Denise Sabonaitis, Debra Brosseau and one that I can’t make out the name. It was from Sandown, NH. The total is now 540. Thank you all so very much! There are cards for boys from the little ones to the teens. The sweetest cards for the girls of all ages too. There is such a great variety to choose from. We are truly grateful to all of you.
I will let you know as the rest of the cards arrive.
Donna

MARCH 2018 Mission - CARDS FOR A CAUSE by va.sunshine at Splitcoaststampers

I mailed 50 cards yesterday.

Hi Donna, I hope you’re doing well and aren’t back in the hospital. I’m wondering if you could tell me if my package of 41 cards arrived yet? I mailed it on the 28th.Thanks! Susie C.

[jkstieber]

Yes, I'm curious too. I mailed a package on the 1st of March.

[Donna Jenn]

Hi everyone, I think I have received all the packages that I know were sent. I received cards from Teresa Kline, Lee Mae Elkins, Jeannie Thomas, Regina Moore, Pat Doyle, Susie Kramer, Julie Stieber, Lynette Pinno, and there is one with no name from Burnt Hills, NY. There is a total of 792 cards! Thank you all so much!
Thank you all for being so patient with me in acknowledging when your cards arrived. The volunteer that would usually receive the cards was unable to do so because of her health therefore I took over. I never thought I would be the one to get this sick for so long. I really do appreciate your patience.
I have something I want to share with you all because it is inspired by you all. The cards that you all sent covered just about every occasion and situation you can think of. Some are beautiful works of art, some are encouraging, some are funny, some are so stinkin cute! There is a card here for everyone and each one evokes a different emotion. With all this in mind, I was just told that there is going to be a card making class added to the summer camp program. You all didn't just send cards. You sent an opportunity for the kids to maybe bring out some of those emotions that they may need some help bringing out. Thank you so much for everything that you all have done for these kids.
Love to all of you,
Donna
