Anyone have an address/company/charity that they have used for Canadian troops?
I have used the "for any service member" on the Canadian military website the past 2 years. Just looking for other options. I will have a plethora of cards this year.
I have a Christmas card making extravaganza marathon this weekend.

You can check Support Our Troops or Op Santa. Typically the cards need to be received by September or October so they can be packaged and sent with the Christmas Care packages.
Alternately, if you know someone who is deployed you can mail packages of cards to them to disperse to their unit.

Nothing about cards on there (yet?). Just donations for care packages.

Sorry I was replying to that line - if I knew one to send stuff to disperse, I would  That, and I WISH I knew single military men! HAHA Gotta love a man in uniform *swoon* Im in AB......but hey, its all about networking - if I am ever out that way....lol The past 2 years I have sent to "any service member" via the website. Last year I mailed 25 cards. Will be more this year as I am not doing the swap. |

melanieg, my son in law is overseas right now for a year. He is a colonel (and MARRIED to my dd LOL), but if you would like me to contact him to see if he could distribute your cards, then just PM me.
