Let's Say Thanks

Have you often thought that you'd like to show your support for our troops, but just don't know how. Here is a great opportunity to do just that. Xerox Corporation has developed a nationwide program aimed at saying "thank you" to our troops. Through the Let's Say Thanks program, postcards designed by children from across the country are available for people to select and write a personalize message to the troops. Xerox prints the cards on its paper and equipment, and mails them in care packages to deployed troops. To take part just visit this website,

2) Personalize it by entering your message, your name and your hometown

3) and you hit send

It is that easy! With the cooperation and generosity of multiple organizations, it is now possible to send millions of postcard messages all submitted through the website. Xerox has partnered with Give2TheTroops, the Boys and Girl's clubs, print shops and corporations.

To date, they have collected millions of messages for U.S. troops around the world - each with special meaning and importance to members of our armed forces.

Give2TheTroops ensures that all the printed postcards are delivered to the troops in care packages filled with necessities and items to lift the troops' spirits.

Give2TheTroops is a non-profit organization formed to support the physical, moral, and spiritual health of America's armed forces in combat zones around the world through the letters and packages prepared and shipped by volunteers. The organization is managed by volunteers who ensure that deployed U.S. military members in all branches of service are supported with letters and care packages.
