If you have some extra kindness in your heart, consider sending a card or a little something to the children's young siblings too? Sometimes they feel "left out" with all the attention that the sick child gets, and some even get very depressed. Once, a sibling of a featured kid said "I wish I had Cancer too so I could get some mail!". Remember, it's not only the child who is ill that goes through all this nightmare, the whole family does. Thank you all!

Important Note: Different kids will be featured here monthly. You're welcome to forward this website's LINK to your friends if you want to ask them to help. But please DO NOT send the child's address to your friends by e-mail or regular mail. Just let them know about MACS and tell them to come here! We do not want our beautiful goal to turn into something like the Craig Shergold Case. Back in 1989, Craig, a child with cancer, began receiving cards from all over the world because a chain-letter (by snail-mail) was going around asking people to send him cards. He was very satisfied after receiving 16 million cards in just one year! Currently, 17 years later and a total of 350 million cards, he is still receiving 36 mailbags full of cards every week because the chain letter is still going around. The Shergold family is begging for people to stop sending cards. In Craig's case, people forwarded the information about sending the cards to the boy. In our case, we want people to forward this website's link only. This way, we can inform people on our website if the family does not wish to receive mail anymore or in case a child passes away, we do not want the family to keep receiving "get well" cards.

Thank you,
The Make A Child Smile Organization
