CardsDirect Sponsors Giant Holiday Card for Troops

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) December 06, 2011

CardsDirect, LLC (http://www.CardsDirect.com), the online leader in custom printed greeting cards is pleased to sponsor a giant sized holiday card honoring our service men and women. Presented on Veteran’s Day, the card is displayed at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in Texas for visitors to sign. Returning troops will be able to read the thoughtful messages as they begin their well-earned days of rest and relaxation.

This year’s card is eight feet tall by 12 feet wide and is placed in a metal frame and available for all to sign in the Terminal B military arrival area at the DFW Airport. Friends, family members and anyone passing through the terminal are encouraged to add special messages for our troops. The three-panel card has plenty of room for all kinds of special messages on the front and back of the giant card that features a patriotic graphic design and message of thanks for the freedom these service members insure for all of us.

“The holidays can be stressful times for our service men and women and their friends and families. We hope the messages shared on these giant holiday cards will bring a bit of happiness to those who defend our freedoms,” says Ward Mahowald, CEO of CardsDirect.com.

CardsDirect also sponsored a “Texas Sized Holiday Card” last holiday season. This super-sized card is now covered with signatures and comments and with the help of the USO, is currently displayed in the military check-in area for departing troops to enjoy.

Offering a full line of patriotic holiday cards, thank you cards, Christmas cards and invitations that include American flags, designs in red, white and blue and patriotic ornaments and Christmas trees, CardsDirect is a proud supporter of our troops. CardsDirect has also provided boxed thank you cards for “Operation Shower” (http://www.OperationShower.org), a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide joyful baby showers for military families to ease the burden of deployment.

To further support our troops, CardsDirect has partnered with “For the Troops” (http://www.forthetroops.org), a volunteer non-profit organization that provides care packages to our troops. A portion of the proceeds of card orders placed through a dedicated web page is donated to this organization. In addition, CardsDirect has furnished holiday cards for this and many organizations that arrange for them to be signed and sent overseas to our troops.
