#92 Complete!

Today I sent 17 Christmas cards some were from this year and some were from last year to St. Jude’s Ranch. I got this idea from The Nest.

St. Jude’s Ranch for Children serves all abused, abandoned and neglected children and families, creating new chances, new choices and new hope in a safe, homelike environment. The Recycled Card Program that I donated cards to turns the previous year’s Christmas cards into "new" cards for the coming season. The children participate in making the new cards by removing the front and attaching a new back. The result is a beautiful new card made by the children and volunteers. The benefits are two-fold: customers receive "green" holiday cards for use and the children receive payment for their work and learn the benefits and importance of "going green". If you would like to donate cards or purchase cards check out St. Jude's Ranch website.
