Fight COVID With Those Who Serve

At this time of social distancing and stay-at-home precautions, many families and households find themselves bored and feeling powerless to help. Heartillery has the cure for the COVID Blues—Operation Can-Do.

Operation Can-Do comes just in the nick of time to give families and households something positive to do, while providing hours of creative fun.

Make Cards – Show Love & Gratitude

We are inspiring cooped up families with kids and households of all ages to make cards and write letters to lift the morale of active duty military personnel who are away from friends and families during this unprecedented crisis. We know from experience how much it means to them to have them in our thoughts. And we know how empowering it is to focus on doing good for others.

Goals

500,000 cards & letters of appreciation

Mailed globally from April 5 to June 30, 2020.

Raise $100,000 by May 31, 2020 to enable us to collect, organize and mail cards overseas for Operation Can-Do and other urgent and time-critical initiatives

Encourage each card maker to donate $20 or more to cover the cost of mailing their card in a box containing 350 cards

Get Involved

To get involved, all you need to do is gather your family with arts and crafts materials to create your own personalized cards & letters sharing love and appreciation. Mail them to Heartillery—we’ll make sure they get to a soldier quickly and safely.

The more cards you make, the more women and men we can reach.

We will continue to stand with our service members during this challenging time. Thank you to all our loyal members who continue to stand up in hard times to help our troops.

Special COVID-19 Extra Precautions

  • Follow good hygiene procedures
    • Wash your hands frequently
    • Use gloves, if you have them
    • Use a disinfectant to clean all your arts & crafts materials before and after
  • Allow your completed cards and envelopes to sit untouched for at least 1 day before you send them
