What a Card

This week I am putting my card writing skills on display. The U.S. Postal Service has hired me as a spokeswoman in efforts to sell more stamps. Just kidding. No one can afford stamps. I want to encourage you to donate to one (or both!) of two causes very important to me.

As you all know, Dance Marathon is my life. 

This year will be my 9TH YEAR raising money for the patients and families served by UNC Children's Hospital. Watch this video. If you have been to a dance marathon you will get chills. If you haven't been to a dance marathon you will likely be confused.

You can donate to my Dance Marathon fundraising page with this link.

But I am also fundraising for my mission trip to Israel this summer! I am so excited to be volunteering at a hospital in Rehovot in June and I still need to raise a little over $1,000. You can donate to my Israel trip by clicking this link.

All donations are tax deductible and everyone who donates will receive a handwritten thank you card from yours truly. Please look through the gallery of past cards below to learn what to expect from a Rachel Daniel thank you card. Also keep in mind that I will paint for donations.

Sometimes I get pretty deep.

And I have been known to make a handmade card or two.

I like to leave in my spelling errors. I think it adds character. Actually I still haven't looked that word up so for all we know it may be spelled correctly. 

I am also great at fill-in-the-blank situations, as you can see here.

Brendan is the direct recipient of many of my cards. Like this one with with money to help him provide for our daughter Chelsea.

And I keep it real about what's inside, no surprises here.

We are very proud parents.

Brendan also happens to be color blind so I have to explain to him what colors are when I use fancy markers.

And he writes me nice notes too. Like this one where he states the obvious. Of course clear is your favorite color Brendan, you live in a world with no color.

I'm a huge fan of gift giving so sometimes that finds its way into a card.


I am clearly rubbing off on my students. Check out these sick card skillz.

That's the front, here is the inside of that card. We should really make Halloween cards a thing.

As you can see I don't let a little pre-written message get in my way.

My cards also come with custom designed seals with my bitmoji. Now there's a thank you that keeps on thanking.

Thank you haikus are kind of my thing.

If any of this has moved you please feel free to make a donation directly online or contact me about how you can mail a check in. Any donation helps! Call me The Temptations 'cause I ain't too proud to beg.
