NOVEMBER 2014 Mission-Cards For A Cause
2014 Cards For A Cause
NOVEMBER MISSION Stamp from the Heart!
ORGANIZATION BEING FEATURED:
Bright Star Center of Health First
Description of Organization:
The Bright Star Center assists children ages 3-18 through the grieving process. Children grieve very differently than adults. At Bright Star they are encouraged to express grief both verbally and through positive play. Art, Children's yoga, grief groups, and a one day camp are just a few activities offered.
Teens in the program take pride in "giving back" through a pet food bank program that donates food to families in the hospice program. This program offers Fellowship and a sense of purpose. These kids are amazing!!
CONTACT PERSON:
Teresa - va.sunshine
Referred by:
Fellow SCSer- Donna Jennings
TYPE OF CARDS:
Birthday, Encouragement, Thank You cards for the teens to use, any other cards for young children to young adult. Please include envelopes if possible.
For a little added inspiration you can join us in playing along with the OPTIONAL challenge each month. This is only optional and you do not have to play along to send your cards to the featured cause for the month. We always take cards no matter if you play along in the challenge or not. This months challenge is to use a star on your card. Be sure to use the keyword C4AC21 so that we can check out your card and comment! To see this months gallery C4AC21 click here. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Another exciting announcement, we now have a badge for you to proudly display on your blog; here is the link. Sticky:Cards For A Cause Blog Badge
Also, we have a section now for on going Cards For A Cause, these are organizations that take cards all year. If after your monthly generous giving you have others, go here..thank you so much for all you do!
Fellow SCSer's, thank you for spreading your SCS love! Please feel free to mail your cards all throughout the month of October!
Once you have mailed them come back to us here and let us know they have gone postal!
Thank YOU!

Sorry to be so late to the game. I'm still going to try to get some cards together in the next week for Bright Star. I'll also work on some birthday cards for St. Francis.
Rita has received cards from Lee Mae, Teresa Kline and Sharon Hendrian. Ladies, thank you all so very much for your kind and caring generosity. So far the total number of cards for November is 391! Amazing!

I am so very sorry for the delay on getting December's cause up, I have had to switch to a different plan. I am so thrilled to let you know we will be spotlighting St. Francis for December. For those of you who have already sent cards, thank you kindly!
