You can play a big part in getting holiday cards to our service men and women this holiday season. Share holiday cheer with some of the 1.4 million who currently serve in our military and 24 million veterans who have served in the past.
For the third year, the American Red Cross and Pitney Bowes, Inc. have teamed up to deliver holiday cards to military members and veterans.

Follow these guidelines while preparing your holiday greetings.
Do...
