Notice something different? Postcrossing has donned its winter theme and is ready for the holidays! This is the season for generosity, and this year we’re really excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Deutsche Post to make your postcards be part of a good cause. Here’s the deal:
So that’s it, really simple! If you’re in Germany, all you have to do is keep sending postcards! If your December postcards are registered before the end of February 2014, you’ll be contributing to this cause.
And though only postcards sent from Germany count, there’s always a receiver in every postcard exchange – so each time a card from Germany is registered, the recipient will be indirectly contributing to this donation as well!
To make things even more interesting, there will also be some nice prizes for the participants:
- 50 bus tickets for the new Postbus service, valid on any trip on their network.
- 20 custom-designed stamp sheets, each including 15 international postage stamps with Postcrossing’s logo;
Stiftung Lesen is a German non-profit organization, working to increase literacy – especially among children and adolescents. They promote reading through several different activities, such as the “My first letter” contest.
So… what are you waiting for? If you are in Germany, grab a pen and your stack of postcards and stamps, and start writing! The more cards you send, the more you’ll contribute to this cause – and the more chances you’ll have of winning a prize! :)
