Red Cross to Deliver Holiday Cards

Week of October 26, 2009

The American Red Cross and Pitney Bowes Inc. will partner for the third year to sponsor the national "Holiday Mail for Heroes" campaign to receive and distribute holiday cards to servicemembers, veterans and their families in the United States and abroad. The card campaign includes those working and receiving care at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. A special P.O. Box address will be published the first week of November online at http://www.redcross.org/holidaymail. In the meantime, people should not send cards to Walter Reed unless they are addressed to a specific wounded warrior. Cards postmarked no later than Dec. 7 will reach servicemembers recovering at Walter Reed.
