Help us send cards again!

Last year we collected over 600 cards and distributed them to local retirement homes.

This year we want to collect even more cards for local healthcare providers.  With your help, we can reach hundreds of employees and patients at local facilities with homemade cards.

This year we have added a new element to our card making! By designing a card you are entered for a chance to win $100 and have your card produced for United Way of Greater Waterbury mailings.  THREE winners will be selected by a panel of judges.  Contest is open from NOVEMBER 1ST to DECEMBER 1ST.

Check out the UPSTARTERS toolkit for this project here.
You can also print these instructions and tips for easy access as you make cards.

Contact Arianna Motto at [email protected] with any questions.

Please note: By submitting a card, the entrant relinquishes any and all intellectual property right in and to the design or any part of it, without limitation, including any ideas, innovations, elements or subject matters included in, integrated into, or derived from the card entry
