Please dont trash cards give them to Cards 4 Kids

Hello all I just read these posts in another thread and had to say something.

<<Do what I did-- when you get the box back just grab everything that graded an 8 or less and throw it in the trash. You have NO IDEA how much better you'll feel once you've gotten that stuff out of your house. >>


<<Trash is a great place for all those 8s, Boo. Hardly worth the effort to list them. >>


For those that don't already know or forgot. I work with a program here in California called Cards 4 Kids. We take donations of unwanted cards and distribute them at local childrens hospitals throughout California and working on a chapter in parts of Oregon as well. We distributed over 500,000 so far this year These Kids love it when we show up and pass out cards and spend some time talking sports with them. It doesnt even matter how old the cards are. The kids may not know the players but most associate with a certain sport and team rather then players . I started this 7 years ago and it has spread with great response. So even if its boxes of commons Please pm me before you ever think about tossing them. I can even pay the shipping for good size lots or if you want to know more and maybe start a chapter of Cards 4 kids in your town feel free to email or pm me.
Happy Holidays Everyone

    About 5 years ago I donated about 400,000 cards to the Shriners Hospital in Greenville SC. The Shriners do a lot for the kids so I was glad to be able to help out a little.
