Help St.Jude...recycle!

[Tnamari]

A while back....okay, a very long time ago I saw in a magazine you could send the cover of your greeting cards and they would revamp them and sell them with profits going to St. Jude. I guess I forgot until today. I was cleaning out my desk and found an envelope FULL of ones I meant to send ...The envelope is already addressed~now I see just how bad my procrastination is! So I looked online to see if they are still doing it- sure enough, this is what I found:

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

I PROMISE I am going to mail them Tuesday!!

Won't you do the same...if your like me they are hidden everywhere:)
