Send Kids the World features kids with life threatening illnesses and injuries and
enables you to reach out to them and send them encouraging postcards from all
around the world.
Write
a cheerful short note to the child. For
example, tell about the picture on the front of the postcard and the place
where you’re sending it from (i.e. Hailey, We live here just below Mt.
Timpanogos. We hope Florida is beautiful
this time of year! Love, The Smith Family).
Or just a simple ‘Greetings from…’.
Simple is best. Remember, you’re
not trying to cure them or be a miracle worker; you’re just making them happy
for a little while!
PLEASE
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY. Know the status
of a child before writing your message and mailing the postcard. Don’t write
get well soon because some of the kids will not get well. You want to cheer up
these children and their families, not add more hurt to their lives.
I
had sent out 72 postcards to all the kids. I made the handmade postcards for
the kids, as I want to reduce my stickers. I wrote their name on the postcard and
decorated with some stickers. At the back of postcard write some message and
decorated with washi tape. Hope they will like my postcards!
For
those interested to write postcard to the kids can refer website of “Send KidsThe World”. You no need to send all postcards to all the kids like me but advisable.
You can send postcard to selective kids or during their birthday.
