Recycle Your Holiday Cards to Benefit Children

If you're like most people, chances are you haven't finished taking down all your holiday decorations quite yet. And that probably includes the holiday cards that you have displayed in your living room. Well, get ready to do some good with those cards!

With programs to help abused, neglected, and homeless children, adults, and families, St. Jude's Ranch for Children can breath new life into your old cards.

The initiative, run by Kids Corp, is designed to teach entrepreneurial skills to kids. Children take the fronts of the cards and add new backs; thereby taking what would have been trash and giving it a new purpose. The cards are available for a variety of occasions and sell for $17 for a pack of 10.

Not only is the ranch in need of holiday cards, but they have a greater need for birthday and thank you cards at the moment. They also accept sympathy cards, Easter, Thanksgiving, and all-occasion cards, as well. However, donations must not have any writing on the inside front of the card.
