This is really great! Can you add a picture of one of your cards?
Also, you should check out dosomething.org/troops
We are sending the cards into a Million Thanks at the address on do something site. Trying to get pictures from the yearbook staff that came by and took pictures. Some more students are putting labels on them, so we will take pictures of that. Forgot the camera yesterday. We will pass on the word about online letter too.
