Thanks-A-Million-Campaign - Thank Our Veterans Thursday November 11
by Michelle Carr-Crowe, Your San Jose Saratoga Cupertino Homes Expert
Veteran's Day is this Thursday, November 11. It's not too late to participate in the Wreaths Across America Thanks-A-Million-Campaign. The nonprofit needs Your Help To Meet The Goal Of Thanking One Million Veterans
Help Us Distribute 1 Million Thank You Cards By Veterans Day!
Over 500,000 thank you cards were distributed by Memorial Day. The number went over 700,000 by the end of summer. But they still need your help complete the 'Thanks-A-Million' goal of distributing one million thank you cards to our veterans, active military, and their families.
It is a small token but all together a big way of saying we appreciate a veteran's service and sacrifice - and we will never forget.
If you aren't familiar with the Wreaths Across America thank you cards... here's the story:
If you are reading this than you are likely of the same mind that we are - that all those who serve in harm's way and sacrifice to provide our freedoms, deserve to be thanked. And without appreciation for what we have and enjoy on a daily basis, those priveleges might one day disappear.
We all know we should do it, but how do you approach a veteran - and say thank you? That's what the thank you card does. It is a proper excuse, and a keepsake at the same time. And with each single card we are telling all those who served - and their families - we will never forget.
David Haskell of NH wrote in to Wreaths of America to share how he when he distributes his cards, he gives away two. One for the person he is thanking (he signs his name on it) and a second for the recipient to give away and keep the line moving. (I love this idea and plan to try it myself this year.)
Ask anyone who has shaken a hand and offered the card - the experience is as important and moving for the giver as it is for those we thank.
And the best part is, THEY ARE FREE! ($5 shipping & handling per 100 business-card sized thank you cards). And there are only 200,000 left!
That's right. We need do give away only 200,000 cards in the next two weeks to reach our goal!
Are there 2000 (1900 after my order) of you out there who feel the same way?
Tell your friends. Our veterans will be marching on November 11th and we want to thank them a million times over.

Ten Ways to Make A Difference Daily Even When You Have No Cash
Ten Ways to Make A Difference Daily Even When You Have No Cash
Did you know there are at least 10 ways to make a difference in the world daily—even when you have no cash? It’s true, easy, and can be done in less than 10 minutes each day.
One is to simply smile, and be sure to give your smiles away. Everyone needs encouragement. Besides, it makes you look younger.
Two through seven are clicking various websites to donate support. The way it works is generous corporate sponsors, such as The Nature Conservatory, Mercy Corps and the Helen Keller Foundation, will donate resources for every daily click.
Two thru Seven are clicking daily to generate monetary support from generous corporate sponsors for important causes
2. Click to feed the homeless animals
3. Click here to feed the hungry children of the world
4. Help provide mammograms to needy women
5. Provide life-saving vitamins, prosthetics, surgery, disease testing and vaccines to children
6. Help save a portion of the rain forest
7. Help teach children to read and love books.
I love this program. I've been telling people to view and click these six "sister" sites since 2005.
Number eight is to pray for these needs, the people giving and receiving them.
Nine is to sincerely thank at least one person each day, whether it's a family member, friend or stranger.
Number ten is easy – tell your friends! You can become a FaceBook fan of these sites, blog about them like I did, write a published newspaper article about them like I did, forward an email of this article, text message or simply call your friends. Like you, they’ll likely be grateful to know there are nine things they can do daily to make the world a better place.
Be sure to write these down, and make a commitment to repeat all nine steps daily.
YES! You can click these daily, but only once. (Insert smile emoticon here.)
