Heart to Heart Card Drive


Carolyn King started a wonderful card drive to honor the Caregivers of those with Alzheimer's
Disease. I kept meaning to make some cards and get them posted, and just finished this one up. I used some of my Heartfelt Creations stamps - Daisy Patch Background and the sentiment is from Simple Filler Stems set.

Carolyn's grandmother passed away in 2008 from complications of Alzheimer’s disease. That was the year that the first Heart to Heart Card Drive began, in her memory, to honor the CAREGIVERS of patients with this awful disease. The Alzheimer’s Association does a great job and finding way to fund raise for research and to spread the word about the disease and how widespread it has become.

This card drive is an effort to thank the silent victims---those who work every day so that someone they love (and sometimes someone they don’t even know well) can survive another one.

To find out more about this card drive and see the list of very generous donors, please visit Carolyn's blog.
