We are thrilled you are choosing to volunteer with us by creating notecards with encouraging messages for our upcoming kit packing events.  \nThis “virtual” volunteer event provides YOU the ability to inspire and support those in our community most in need of a positive message. All creative skills are welcome! Volunteers will use their creativity to bring encouragement to our ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) individuals and families. These notecards will be added to our essential needs kits to provide a positive and personal message to the recipient.  \nHow do I create an encouragement card?  \n1. Download the notecard template. Each note card is a half-sheet of paper, so each page has two notecards.  \n2. Print and personalize notecard(s) with a kind word, message, quote , phrase and/or drawing. You may also use stickers or other embellishments to make your notecards stand out!  \n3. Mail completed notecards to the following address:  \nUnited Way NCA/Volunteer Engagement  \n1015 15th Street NW  \nSuite 1200  \nWashington, DC 20005  \n4. While we prefer to use original notecards wherever possible, we recognize that sometimes mailing them is not possible. If you are unable to mail the notecards, you may also scan and email [them to](them to volunteer@uwnca.org)[ ](them to volunteer@uwnca.org)[volunteer@uwnca.org](them to volunteer@uwnca.org) or drop-off originalsat one of our office locations. If you would like to drop-off, please email [volunteer@uwnca.org](volunteer@uwnca.org) to schedule a drop-off time.  \nWho is the target audience for notecards?  \nThe encouragement notecards you send us will be included in our essential needs kits. Once packed, these kits are distributed to middle and high school students, families, and adults living in the region who cannot meet the daily cost of living for the county/state in which they live and access our programs and services. Further, recipients come from diverse cultural backgrounds, religious affiliations, and location.  \nAs such, we recommend keeping your messages and notecards generally applicable to all audiences as we won’t always be able to direct your cards specifically to adults or students, etc.  \nGuidelines and Recommendations:  \n• Messages and artwork should be language appropriate for all recipients.  \n• Keep notecards entirely positive and secular. Use thoughtful and motivational language appropriate for all audiences. Avoid negative words/phrases, including messages such as “I know times are tough, but  ”.  \n• Make sure your handwriting is large and legible.  \n• Not an artist? That’s ok! You can enhance fun written messages with stars, polka dots, hearts, wiggly borders, and other easy-to-draw decorations.  \n• Avoid including any personal identifying information, including your name, email address, or phone number. Companies/Groups hosting a notecard writing activity may choose to sign notecards with their company/group name.  \nSend [questions/inquiries to:](questions/inquiries to: volunteer@uwnca.org)[ ](questions/inquiries to: volunteer@uwnca.org)[volunteer@uwnca.org](questions/inquiries to: volunteer@uwnca.org)","cbCaihxQ9nO5ApwO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihxQ9nO5ApwO","pdf",100495,"English","# How to create an encouragement card?\n## Download and print the template\n## Personalize with messages, quotes, and drawings\n## Mail completed cards\n## Alternatives: scan/email or drop-off\n# Who is the target audience?\n# Guidelines and recommendations\n## Keep messages positive and secular\n## Ensure legibility\n## Avoid personal identifying information","[{\"question\":\"Where and how do I send the completed notecards?\",\"answer\":\"Mail completed notecards to United Way NCA/Volunteer Engagement at 1015 15th Street NW, Suite 1200, Washington, DC 20005.
