We are celebrating National Send a Card to a Friend Day by putting together some Valentine’s Day cards for our military servicemembers.
We are excited to participate in the Soldier’s Angels Valentines for Veterans program, which facilitates the distribution of holiday cards to deployed service members around the world or hand-delivers them to veterans in VA Hospitals across the country.
Charity Navigator rates Soldier’s Angels a four-star charity, which is another reason we feel good about participating in this program. They are asking for a donation of $1 per card to defray the cost of mailing them.
If you’d like to join us in sending a little love to our veterans, you can either drop your cards off at our office by Friday and we’ll make sure they get to Soldier’s Angels in time to be distributed, or you can send them directly to this address:

Before sending your Valentine’s Day cards, please keep these tips in mind:
- The deadline is Feb. 14.
- Cards can be store-bought or handmade.
- Individually wrapped candy can be included if it is attached to the card.
- Include $1 per card, cash or check.
- You can include an envelope if you want, but not necessary.
- If you include an envelope, do not seal it.
- At your discretion, you are welcome to include your return address in the event the recipient may write back to you. However, it is also OK if you do not include any personal information.
