For our letter-writing 'junkies'
If you just love to write letters to our heroes, have we got an opportunity for you!
AnySoldier.com (where we get most of our hero addresses) has a great forum filled with all sorts of discussions - what/who/how to send care packages, etc. And they also have some organized cardswaps: these are for swapping signed cards, so all the participants can send messages of support from across the nation inside their care packages!
The goal for their Christmas swap is 50 participants…each member writing 50 cards or letters, mailing them to the coordinator, and receiving 50 different ones back! Fifty is a lot of cards to some, but to a few of you, it’s a lightweight request. (You know who you are!)
What to do:
1. Register on the AnySoldier Forum. (You can go view it without registering, just can’t post until you register.)
2. Sign up on the swap thread here.
3. Follow the instructions listed on that thread. Lots of great ideas there!
4. If you want to send out a package yourself this Christmas, you can, or you can ask the organizer to send it to one of our shippers instead (please provide their address obviously inside your package).
