Put Your Greeting Cards to Good Use

If you are the type of person who doesn’t keep all of the cards they might receive during the holiday season, then here’s a way to put them to good use. The St. Jude’s Ranch for Children is currently accepting used, all-occasion cards from November 15, 2009 – February 28, 2010 for their recycled card program. The idea was conceived for turning the previous year’s Christmas cards into “new” cards for the coming season. The recipients were so delighted with their unique “thank you,” they requested the children sell them the special cards.

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”.
