Recycle Your Holiday Cards & Benefit St. Jude’s

Don’t know what to do with all of those holiday cards you received now that the holiday season is coming to an end?  Have a drawer full of old Christmas cards from people you can’t even remember meeting?  Have a bunch of cards left in the box that you didn’t get around to sending this year?

Believe it or not, but they can be reused and I don’t mean reused like in the tacky way a rather broke, divorced guy friend of mine used to do by scratching out the original sender’s name and signing his own name before giving it to someone else. :P   No, you can recycle your holiday greeting cards and benefit St. Jude’s and there’s no tackiness about that.

Send the front of your holiday greeting cards to St. Judes  Ranch for Children.  The children in St. Jude’s care make and sell new cards from the old ones they receive.

Mail the fronts of your holiday greeting cards to:

St. Jude’s Ranch for Children
100 St. Jude’s Street
P.O. Box 60100
Boulder City, Nevada  89006

Nice idea. Though the holidays are already over.But, still I would send my holiday greeting cards in my next holiday.

That’s a nice idea! I’ve never thought of it. I sure have a lot of cards ..never expected so many this Christmas. But I’ll consider your idea! Thanks – Blaze

WE ARE USING THIS AS A MISSION PROJECT FOR OUR CHURCH. YOU WOULD NOT BELIVE THE CARDS THAT WE HAVE COLLECTED.
THANKS
