Send a Note

This year you might want to think about sending a personal note in your box(es). In a separate envelope, you can include a note and a photo of yourself or your family. If you include a prestamped envelope with your name and address, the child may write back.

This is just what happened when Juleen Edwards sent a note in her box 10 years ago. She received a thank you note back from a Eduardo, a boy from Honduras who had received her box, and the two began to write back and forth. Through these letters they became great friends and this year they got to meet for the first time! To read the full story click here.
