Thanks to partnerships with Activate:Chi, Volunteering Untapped Chicago, and many independent volunteers there were 924 behind-the-scenes volunteer hours logged this year! Our behind-the-scenes volunteers are passionate and uber important to our organization. Without you, we wouldn't be able to reach as many people as we do. We receive numerous cards each week and need people to help count, review, and package cards for delivery. If you live in the Chicagoland area or surrounding suburbs and would like to help behind the scenes, sign up below! | | |

Beata and Aaron share how joining the Card Counting Crew is just as important as making cards. They believe that even if you feel you're not the most creative (making cards), you can still get involved with Cardz For Kidz and make a positive impact. |
