Give a child a blank sheet of paper, crayons, and markers and soon you have a picture! Let's Say Thanks! is a fantastic program that matches up Xerox, Give2TheTroops and people everywhere to give us a chance to show some troop support for FREE!!!! Yep! Free, no cost at all, in any way shape or form to you!
“The mission of Let's Say Thanks is to provide a way for individuals across the country to recognize U.S. troops stationed overseas. By submitting a message through this site you have the opportunity to send a free personalized postcard greeting to deployed servicemen and women.
The postcards, depicting patriotic scenes and hometown images, were selected from a pool of entries from children across the country.”Let's Say Thanks!
This is part of the reason it is a no cost win-win support program for our military!
“QuantumDigital to print 500,000 postcards for Xerox’s Let’s Say Thanks Program
AUSTIN, Texas and ROCHESTER, N.Y. June 14, 2007 — The Lone Star state stands alone as the top contributor to Xerox Corporation’s (NYSE: XRX) Let’s Say Thanks program, a free and easy way to send postcards of support to U.S. troops serving overseas. Now, local Austin printer QuantumDigital is helping out, by printing half a million postcards for this national program.”

I know for a fact that this program works. How you say? I filled out maybe a dozen postcards, when I first saw this website a year ago. Last summer, I received an email from a soldier heading home and one from an airman passing thru an airport in Turkey. They each had seen one of my postcards in the lounge that our military have for them to wait in at the airports overseas. I was flabbergasted! Do you know what else? It made me feel good, real good inside that I had taken the time to send those postcards out. I still email one of those men, and I just found out he is back overseas again!
So there is absolutely NO EXCUSE to not go to this site and write a message of support for our men and women serving around the world! You can’t even use the excuse of not having a computer, because we both know you need a computer to be reading this story in the first place! Have fun and enjoy the pictures!
