There are many ways we would use our billion dollar lottery winnings ….but until that happens , we need your partnership. We are a 501c3 Nonprofit that is fully volunteer and donation driven to get the job done! Just to give you an idea of how much sending 250,000 cards costs—between $25,000 – 30,000. Yep it is true that there is a lot that goes into making sure your cards get to our Troops Veterans and MIlitary Families

#everypennyhelps

Direct donations are graciously accepted and can be mailed to HOliday Card Challenge PO Box 103 Hollis NH 03049

We have the wonderful opportunity to use the nonprofit fundraising platform GIVEBUTTER.com. Just go to the Holiday Cards 4 Our Military CHallenge Page and they make it easy to do b. The website has a direct link to our page in Donate section

SPONSOR-A-BOX has been a huge success. THe costs of sending a box of 1,000 cards is about $150.00. We will put your name- family, individual , group, business, faith community…- on the box to let the recipients know that they have a friend in you. You can do this either through a direct donation or through Givebutter

This year we introduced the old school PENNY DRIVE where businesses, schools, groups, even families have designated weeks for collecting your coins (bills work too!) We have heard great stories of friendly competitions between family members, departments/branches in businesses, grades and schools … teachers… Winners have received bragging rights, trophies, pizza parties, exemption from chores… You can do this all year long too. AND then make those donations either directly or through Givebutter

We also have introduced a #communityCANdoit program. Where communities put up cans or collection boxes in local businesses designated to support BOTH a shop local eat local idea AND the Card CHALLENGE. It is a win win for all. Many students who have service projects enjoy this process

WE love your ideas and hope that you will share them with us, TOGETHER we will have a #missionaccomplished
