Bushfire Hope Cards

Just an idea- Seeing as we all feel so helpless and wish that we were able to do something for the bushfire victims-could we all make or donate a "hope" card to send to them to let them know that we are thinking of them and wishing them hope for the future? They might appreciate something beautiful. We could all send them to one location- and get them to the relevant place in one go. If we all advertised it on our blogs and maybe SCS then we might be able to collect quite a few. What do you think?

POST SCRIPT:= Seems like someone else had this idea too ...Please visit

for info on a card drive that is already going...

Also- there has been a similar drive started to donate 12x12 scrapbook pages so the families can restore some of their memories (or create new ones . . ) Please visit

Thanks Robyn for the links - I'm sure our efforts will be appreciated and will lift the spirits of the fire-fighters and the survivors alike even if it's only in a small way.
