BECAUSE WE CARE

Picture
​
​Thinking of You Week is a special week that harnesses the emotional power of greeting cards to create a wave of love, caring and happiness around the world.

Sending handwritten cards generates positive feelings and well being. Science has shown that receiving a handwritten card creates a lovely warm positive boost.

The fact that you have spent the time to make or chose a card, write it and send it makes people feel far more special and cared for than receiving instant texts, emails or Facebook messages.
