Hi all.

I just wanted to post a quick note about what to do with your left over holiday cards.

Would you consider sending them to:

A Recovering Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Ave
NW Washington DC 20307-5001

Hi. Funny you should post this, because I saw it today too, and I did some investigation. The Walter Reed Medical Center is no longer running this, but there is another address that you can send cards to.

Have a read about it here:

I called my friend who works for Red Cross. She assures me that Holiday Mail for Heroes is alive and well and the deadline is next FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7TH.
