I am also sharing cards I donated to #Cards for Cubs.  I don't make cards for kids often so I look forward to making more cards for this wonderful organization.  I am not affiliated at all with them, just think it's a great cause.

"Cards for Cubs is a registered, non-profit organization aiming to support and encourage young people in foster care through uplifting, handmade cards reminding them that they are not alone. 

We depend on donors like you for your unique and inspiring cards so that we can send them to foster agencies, who get them into the hands of the children and young adults in their care. Caseworkers who know the child personally are able to use our handcrafted cards to write an encouraging message as they enter the foster system. 

Let’s work together to place a card in the hand of every young person in the United State’s foster care to remind them they are loved and cherished."
