Time to share the LOVE

For those of you who have been reading this blog for the past few years.  I work for a group of radio stations.  This to me is one of the most rewarding charity events we do every year.  The creative cards we get from every where is absolutely amazing.  

If you have the time, please join in.  For the main office send.

A Call to Hearts Pt2.

Ready to see the results??

Over 13000 cards were collected.  To say the results were more than the station expected is an understatement.

Here is the video of the visit.  You can click in the corner of the video to make full screen.  The second video on the player is the "stuffing" party for the cards into bags.



This is a REALLY bad photo..  The video is better.

Again THANK YOU ALL for your help.

A Call to Hearts

I received an interesting email from one of the station managers this afternoon asking for something I think is so suited for this group it cannot be ignored.

The email reads as follows:

"Hello everyone,

Remember how fun Valentine’s Day was when you were a kid?  You couldn’t wait to get to school to see all the Valentine’s Day cards you’d get from your friends! 

We want all kids to have that awesome feeling, so Star 106.5 has just announced Monica Lowe’s Valentine’s Day Cards for Kids.  It’s easy.  We’re asking our listeners to make Valentines for kids who are stuck in the hospital on Valentine’s Day, missing out on getting cards from their friends at school.   Monica will hand deliver them to the hospital for the kids who need a smile.

If you’re crafty, know someone who is, or could ask your child’s art teacher about getting the kids at your school involved you would be doing a great thing!       

Here’s a link to find out more!

I think this is a wonderful idea and hope you all could help out and spread the word if possible.

Thanks

Of Moose (but sadly no Squirrel)

 We has three incoming today.  Our FIRST overseas postcard from Sweden for a "non touristy" swap-bot.

Our second over seas (two in one day!!) comes from Lithuania. I do like the church stamp.  Notice the floor plan.  The Gentleman in the last though looks a bit miffed.  Should find out a bit more about him..

And our last comes from right here in the U.S.  Sent from 'Bama the postcard is of Cooperstown, New York.  I really need to get there in the next few years.  Me a baseball photog and all..

And to our final postcard of the day an outgoing, took me awhile to complete, but someone requested a "V".
