How you can help:

We all have left over holiday cards every year, so why not put them to good use and spread some holiday cheer. Our deployed military men and women have sacrificed this time of year away from their families and loved ones so that we can enjoy the holidays safely and freely with ours.

Participation is very easy and we encourage everyone to help. Get your friends, families, communities, school, churches, child care centers, etc. involved in showing our troops they are thought of. We welcome cards of ALL faiths from anywhere around the world! The cards can be store bought or home made, but we ask that they are no bigger than 9x9 to fit into shipping boxes.

Do's and Dont's :

-do NOT seal the envelopes
-only write supportive and encouraging notes. Please make sure your cards are heartfelt and thanking the troops. Spend some time and make sure that they are something that you would like yourself or a loved one to receive. 
-you may include email or mailing address
-stickers are ok
-envelopes may be decorated
-if mailing large quantities please ship in bulk. Its cheaper for you and easier for us.
-Please include the total amount of cards you send if mailing multiples. It helps us greatly!

Many people ask about postage. We mail the cards in bulk to the troops, so you do not need to include stamps on the cards. However, we run only on donations and the support of people such as yourselves. 1 box containing 300-400 cards costs $13 to mail overseas, mailing in country costs $16. With a record amount of cards expected to come in we will be mailing both overseas and to bases here at home. Just because troops are in the US for the holidays, doesn't mean they are spending it with family or loved ones.
Our shipping charges alone are expected to cost $7,000 dollars this year. We need your help!!! Please consider sponsoring a box or more if you can.

New in 2012!! For any business donating $150 or more you will be featured on our sponsors page with your business name and a direct link to your website. The bigger the donation, the bigger the logo space!!
