I had a card making party with family last night and we are SO Excited to deliver these cards (along with so many others we have collected) to the brave and deserving patients at the cancer treatment center in our city. What a great cause. I have blogged about this throughout the year (since I signed up) and will continue to do so as I intend to deliver cards at different time of the year. ~MandyP

We are a group of 25+ from all over the states, all different ages, all different interests, but we decided this was a cause we could all work on together. We are members of the Dog Channel. Some of us have been on for several years, some a few months. Many have had the chance to meet others. Many have had cancer affect their lives in some way. One of our members, Diane, from TX, found out about this and , as I am a survivor of cancer, asked if I would be team leader. I was honoured. I will be delivering cards on Friday, April 9. I ahve revieved many boxes and envelopes with card of all shape, sizes, homemade, storemade, kid made, adultmade and manmade!! Best of all, I have been given the responsibility of taking the cards to Mercy Medical Center here in Baltimore. Karen

I was diagnosed on Nov. 20th with cervical cancer. I was lucky enough to have been diagnosed so early! When I first saw this, I was like, I could do this! Now it's a priority for me! The past 7 weeks of chemo and radiation was such an eye opener for me! SO many people having to do this once a week for the rest of their lives! I have made some wonderful friends in 7 weeks. Amazing how this changes your ENTIRE life and how you look at the world! It really opens your eyes and you become so UNSELFISH! I have a chance to have it better then most! And I feel I want and NEED to give back to those that need it most! Thank you to the person who started this! I look forward to being with this project for years to come! I have lost alot of family to cancer and I have alot of family that has since been diagnosed since me! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to those who continue to help us fight this fight!

Thank you for organizing this. As a person who spent a month in the hospital, I know how important cards are for the sole. I signed up as a team leader and will be making/collecting and delivering in Connecticut Our team name is Smiles 4 Miles. The 11 year old son of a friend thought of the name after it was explained to him what the purpose of Cards4Cancer was. He made the connection that this is something that is being doing all over. LIke he said across many miles we will be helping people smile, even if it is for a short period of time.. Thank you again... Lets get more people involved. Keep Faith Alive

Moving right along...

We were able to get support from a local business. They are acting as drop-off locations for cards. There are several locations around the Pittsburgh area. =) I also submitted this as an event to one of our local papers onlline events calendar. My husband and I are also throwing in a $25 Wal-Mart gift card for the person or team who delivers the most cards. ~Mandy

Amazing!

This is awesome. My husband lost his first wife to Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma when she was only 31 and he was 29. He still talks of the sense of community among those with cancer and the family and friends who support them. Can't wait to be a part of spreading awareness!
