Hi Scott,

Thanks for writing about Holiday Mail for Heroes in November. On behalf of my colleagues at Pitney Bowes and the Red Cross, I wanted to thank you for drawing attention to this program on your blog. As you predicted, even one person can make a difference. Thanks to you, your readers, and others that heard about the program, Pitney Bowes and the Red Cross received 1,400,000 cards to send.

To express our gratitude to you and your readers, we have created the following thank you video. I hope you will view and share this message. Thanks so much for your help!
