Holiday Mail for Heroes Greeting Cards

The American Red Cross and Pitney Bowes have teamed up for the fourth annual Holiday Mail for Heroes program.


From now until December 10th you are invited to send holiday cards to our American service members, their families, and veterans all over the world. Anyone can send a card and you can send as many as you would like!

Your objective:

Create a holiday card using the template provided to send to our service men and women overseas.

Top left and right are upside down. Therefore, you will need to "flip" vertically and horizontally. Graphics and ClipArt can be flipped. Textboxes cannot.

Change your margins to .5 in. Display rulers. To help you see your "workspace," draw a line down the middle of the page (3 3/4" mark) and across the middle of the page (5" mark).

Create a holiday card. Wish the person well. Feel free to search for quotes, lyrics, jokes; content for the inside of the card. Also include a personal message. Don't forget to spell check.

The inside left and right will contain text boxes and are right side up. Be sure to put your name on the card along with Morris Hills High School and Rockaway, NJ. This can be on either the inside right or back of the card.

Before you print your card, remove the "guide" lines. Also Print Preview!

All cards will be mailed to the Red Cross on December 3rd.

Total points: 30
