Cards for Troops
Do you have extra greeting cards—or enjoy making them? Join our Cards for Troops ministry by donating handmade or store-bought cards to encourage service members and veterans throughout the year.

You don’t have to be a card maker to help. You can donate cards, stamps, time, or financial support.

As a Navy Mom, I’m part of private groups that share verified addresses. While I can’t share them, I will mail your cards on your behalf when needs arise.

The Heart Behind It
In 2019, when my son joined the U.S. Navy, I began sending cards as a way to support others serving far from home. What started as a small effort has grown into a meaningful ministry.

Each month, 50–80 birthday cards are sent worldwide, along with seasonal drives for Christmas and Veterans Day.

With your help, we aim to send over 2,100 cards each year.

Join Us
Whether you donate one card or many, your kindness makes a difference. Thank you for helping bring encouragement and gratitude to those who serve.
