Create Cards

Updates: March 2, 2023

Email acknowledgments are paused as we investigate a system glitche. We will announce when email acknowledgments are live again. Continue to include an email address with your packages.

As an organization that sends cards year-round, we encourage you to focus on making general-themed uplifting cards. These cards don't expire and can be enjoyed all year.

When packaging your cards, please label the outside of your box/package with the type of cards included (see example here).

Creating cards is a simple way to give back individually, with family and friends, as an organization (group or club), or as a corporate involvement project.
