Angel Card Project....If you haven't heard of this yet, you need to go chek it out!
Every year lots of folks come together to spread a little holiday cheer by sending Christmas cards to those less fortunate, sick, elderly, lonely, Military, and anyone else who might need a little spiritual lift! It's all strictly volunteer, and nobody makes any kind of money from doing this. It's a great way for some of us to 'give a little back' by bringing a smile to someone who may not otherwise have much reason for that this year.
If you're interested (and I hope you are!) in sending out some holiday cheer, and you agree to the following guidelines, just click on the link above for more information and to sign up!
2007 Guidelines
1. This is strictly a volunteer project. If you sign up, you are doing it because you have a good heart. :o)
2. You may send out a card to one person or all persons. It's entirely up to you! There is no set number of cards for you to send out. Just do so as you are able and as your heart leads you.
3. This project is designed for CARDS to be sent to those on the list. Nothing else is required. ONLY CARDS. If you choose to send other items such as gifts, etc, please remember that you do so on your own accord and it is not part of this Angel Project. I know that at this time of year there are so many with tender hearts and they want to do more. But remember that these are coming from you, a stranger, to the Special people we are trying to help. So we don't want to overwhelm them too much nor cause them any alarm. So I would strongly urge that you stick to just cards!!
4. You may address your cards from and sign them from yourself or you can say they are from Santa, a secret angel, etc. That one is up to you. In the past, a lot of folks have sent them saying they are from the North Pole. :o)
5. Please remember to be RESPECTFUL. This is a project to bring cheer. So remember that when you are sending out cards.
How it Works for Volunteers:
1. Email Mark to sign up to be a Card Angel (there's an email link at the website)
2. On or around the Weekend of December 8th, 2007, he'll send an email to all of the volunteers who sign up to be Card Angels.
3. In that email, there will be a link for you to access that will have the names, addresses and stories of all of the people that we will be sending cards to this year. You can send a card to one person, a few, or all if you like!
4. You can print that list if you would like. Once you have the list, then you get your Christmas Cards from a store or make them yourselves (which can be fun!).
5. You fill them out however you would like, address & stamp them, put them in the mail, and YAY!!! You've just touched someone's life in a very positive way! :o)
