“I cannot express how much the cards meant to me. They lifted me up on my darkest days. Having a chronic illness feels so endlessly isolating. The cards made me feel seen, and remembered and brought me so much comfort. I cried at every one I received.”

Our goals

Number of illness warriors requesting cards:

9,727
(and growing every day!)

Number of cards we can send every quarter:

2,500
(2,250 domestically, 250 internationally)

With our current funding, we can only send out cards to a little over half of our current warriors, and this number is growing every day. That means that every time we send a card, there are illness warriors left behind. We strive to one day send a card to every single warrior in our database, multiple times a year.
