I believe there was a teacher who posted on this forum that uses cards in his classes. He was seeking donations at one point. Maybe Leon remembers, or someone does and can put you in touch with him. It sounded like the kids got a kick out of it.

Default twice a year we always need cards

At our synagogue show twice a year we use goodie bags in which we give 100-150 cards per bag along with a :"surprise" gift. We can always use more cards because at our last two shows, we have probably given away more than 50,000 cards. Yes it's like a beast that never goes away.

PM me for details.

Rich

Default Nate Adams

Nate Adams has posted on here before. I have sent a big box of cards to him and his cause seems very worth while. Here is the SCD article:

The article kind of warms your heart. You should be able to look up his handle or Leon can put you in touch with him if you can't find it after a quick search...he has posted on here before.

Some great ideas/options in here. Going to have to see if anything similar exists in Ontario/Canada as I also have many cards I'd like to donate.

May check out Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto. I donate $$ weekly through payroll deduction so hopefully they also accept sport cards for the kids?

I forgot to mention we can also provide a tax receipt sheet for your records so you can write off any donation
