Kindness Cards for Frontline Workers

KIDS CARE has collected & delivered 395 Cards of Encouragement & Gratitude to local Frontline Workers.

KIDS CARE Corporation, a Marietta based nonprofit, has delivered 395 Kindness Cards to our local Frontline workers. Kindness Cards of encouragement & gratitude are still being collected for local Hospital Staff, Fire, EMS, Police and 911 Dispatch Personnel.

Cards, letters, painting's, coloring's and posters can be responsibly dropped off at one of the many Drive By & Drop Off stations we have set up within Cobb, Cherokee & Butts County. These are NO CONTACT drop off points. We are asking for teachers, scouts, churches, youth groups, neighbors, families and individuals to please join our efforts to create a few smiles for our incredibly hard working Frontline workers.

In addition, if you would like to participate and are unable to leave your house for a Drive By & Drop Off you may have a card donated in your name. Simply email jannd@forartsake.com your personalized message and "Carol Wilson Fine Arts Inc." will generously hand write your message on a donated greeting card for you for FREE! These cards will then be given to KIDS CARE and donated directly to a Frontline worker.

Lead by example and gather your people to help us get-n-give another 100 Kindness Cards to those serving our community during this challenging time. KIDS CARE is looking for individuals who can help organize a Kindness Card Collection in their local area. We are also in need of those who can help us spread the information of this Kindness Card Campaign with others so that more people can feel good about giving and we can share more smiles with those serving our community.

All information is on our website at: https://www.kids-care2018.org. We may also be reached thru the following mediums:
