Where to send a card?

[cjchio]

So I have an abundance of holiday cards.

Are there any legit charities/organizations (maybe military? ) that I can send some to? Some down here required money down...it seems scam-esque.

I would like to put these cards to good use rather than have them sit in my closet for a year.

There is a military card sending thing, I forget what it's called now dammit. I'm sure someone knows.....

NVM the ones I found have due dates that have already passed.

I'd just save em for next year... ::shrug::

If you're cool with donating them sometimes schools use them for crafts n' such!

Especially lower-income at-risk schools where kids can have nice cards to give to their families

I'll look around...my husband said his school is ok, but maybe other schools could use them!

Is there a nursing home you could give them to so they could pass them out to their residents?

I'll will ask my office. That's a great idea!

I feel like there was a post about this in the randoms... maybe it was starbuck27? A little girl who people were sending cards to?

Parenting had a thread about cards for troops. I think there were other suggestions too.

Thanks guys!

I will send some out, and I will definitely send one to the little girl.

I was going to suggest the little girl and the military but I see this has been covered.
