    Description

    Virtual opportunity - coloring "Cards of Hope" at home for cancer patients

    Join Phil's Friends in bringing HOPE to individuals impacted across the country by cancer. We are in need of virtual volunteers to color our "Cards of Hope". Any age can assist in this opportunity.

    Our "Cards of Hope" are printed greeting cards that we mail to cancer patients on a monthly basis. We are on target to mail out just over 10,000 cards per month around the United States.

    If you have a printer and acess to a computer to download the Cards of Hope you simpy print them out on copy paper (double sided). Please do NOT use card stock. Then, once printed, you simply color the cards with crayons or color pencils. No markers please, as they bleed through the paper. Do NOT embellish the cards with stickers, sequins, foam pieces , etc.

    Write your first name ONLY, your age, and the state you live in on the inside.

    Visit our website: www.philsfriends.org for additional information. On the website, you can download the cards and the instructions of the "please do" and the "please do not" guidelines.

    Upon completion, return your finished cards to any of our local Hope Centers (Wheaton, IL - Addison, IL or Crown Point, IN) or you can mail them to:

    Phil's Friends

    1240 Arrowhead Ct

    Crown Point IN 46307

    If you have any questions, please call us at 224-653-8315 or visit our website at: www.philsfriends.org

    We hope you can join us and in bringing HOPE to patients impacted across the country by cancer.

    Thank you,

    Phil's Friends
