Its a great idea and many of us collectors donate cards quite often. Let me know when you need the cards. I could give some up. I donate locally myself, be it through an organization or just out right giving kids stacks of cards at shows that I see are REALLY trying to stretch their buck. They are the kids that look at EVERY card in the box, lol I remember all to well what it was like at those boys club card shows in the eighties having so many quarter or ten for a buck boxes and nothing but time on a sunday at age 10, just never enough quarters and dimes, lol. Its wierd, now I never have enough twenties. *facepalm*

lol, What the hell happened?

Yeah, I remember those days. Funny looking back and seeing how much things have changed. LOL

Thanks for your interest. You can send the cards anytime really. The sooner the better so that I know how many cards I'll have and how many packs to make and how I'll package them. I'll PM you my address shortly.

OK...gotta trust ya. Sounds like something I'd be interested in....put me down, I have a bunch of 2010-2012 base regular topps and also some Heritage, Chrome, Lineage & A&G base I can part with. Give me a "round" number of the amount of cards you would like

Want me to put together "team" sets or do you just want them random

Send me your addy......probably will not ship until 1st week of November.

Thanks and good luck in your endevor! Tis a noble cause.........

Thank you very much Phillies_Joe. Send me random and however many you want. Not sure how I'm going to package them just yet. PM'ing you now. Thanks again.

I'd like to thank the following guys for volunteering thus far:

Krangry
hongkongfooey
acevanquish
toddaray
Phillies_Joe
josiahcecil

I really appreciate it guys and look forward to putting these together and delivering them. I figure if I have more than I need for the program at my church I'll contact Johns Hopkins Children's Cancer wing and see about delivering them up there too.

That was my thought exactly. Thanks for the interest. PM sent.

You should get some pictures when the kids open them up its always great to see a less fortunate child get a gift from total strangers. Im in the Army and Im going to spread this idea through the ranks in my unit and see what else I can get donated. I forgot what city did you say your in? Another thing you could do which could really expand the amount of cards to be donated is contact your local sports radio station and ask them for a plug for the cause like once a day or once a couple days, Im sure they would be glad to have any good public relations hit the wires.
