News for August

Welcome to our newest SAS4Kids recipient: The Ronald McDonald House in Providence, RI. We're so happy to be able to provide smiles for more kids and families!

If you work or volunteer for a hospital or RMH and want your facility to receive our cards, please let us know! There is always room for more smiles. 

We have a new challenge for August, focusing on Birthday cards! Click the challenge tab to see all the great cards the design team has made to inspire YOU! Join our challenge this month (or every month!). The Challenge Rules tab shows you how to link up your awesome card. You can join even if you don't have a blog link, so everyone can play along! 

Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Summer is almost here!

Ah, sweet summertime! Time for gardening, cookouts, and fun times with family and friends.

If you find yourself stuck inside due to rain, cicadas, or hiding from the heat, consider joining our monthly challenges! They start on the first Saturday of the month. This May we are celebrating fathers, dads, pops, grandfathers, father-figures, and step- and foster-fathers. Next month focuses on cards for tweens and/or teens, and July features Holiday cards! Any child-friendly card can be shared, so grab your supplies, ink up your stamps, and join the fun! Guidelines and instructions to link your card are in the Challenge Rules Tab. Check out our other entries on the Challenge page. Hope to see your card there, too!

Have a safe and happy summer!

 Happy Holidays!

Thank you all for your help, kind words, cards, donations, challenge entries and smiles you have generated this year. I hope to be back in January with some numbers so you can see how many people you have helped us reach. Any guesses? I

 A Season of Thankfulness

Thanksgiving is a great time to celebrate all the good things in life, so it with a grateful heart I send A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has sent in cards, monetary donations, card-making supplies or kind words to SAS4Kids! We couldn't send as many smiles without everyone's help. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
