There are still a few spots open for the Ronald McDonald House Card Drive! If you haven't heard about what we're doing at Paper Pretties, here are some details:
Our goal is to provide a large amount of Christamas/Holiday/Winter themed cards for families at the RMH to use. The RMH is a haven for families who's children are hospitalized away from home. To celebrate National Card Making Day, we at Paper Pretties would like to give back to the community!
Being a pediatric nurse, I've seen how important the RMH is for familes. Some of my patients have been hospitalized for over a year. Without the RMH, these familes would be subjected to sleeping in chairs in the hospital or trying to manage outrageous hotel fees. Most families simply wouldn't be able to be with their children on a routine basis. This organization is really a blessing to sick children and their loved ones.
What to do:If you are interested in signing up, please send an e-mail to: julie_stamps@hotmail.com
- Send 5 cards (WITH ENVELOPES) made with the above theme in mind. (Please do not write personal messages inside the cards, as these are intended for the families to utilize.)
- You can use any company's supplies to create these cards!
- Cards can be all alike or all different, whichever you chose.
- Cards must be postmarked by Oct. 6th (National Card Making Day)
IN RETURN, you will receive:
- a card made by a Paper Pretties DT member
- a gift certificate to the PP's Corner Store for 25% off of ONE item (35% off of ONE item for PP members!)
We only have 25 spots, so let me know asap. I've already received a few cards and they are BEAUTIFUL! (We will not turn down any card donations, so even if we are full and you would like to donate anyway, that would be wonderful!!!!) Thanks again!!!
This is an awesome idea!!! I just emailed you and hope to hear back soon.
