Get your cards early!

🎨✨ We’re so excited to launch Kards for Kids 2025 — our annual holiday campaign featuring four design options created by local artist Jon Affolter! This year, we’re offering three customizable holiday cards and one blank design that’s perfect for use year-round and any occasion. 💌⁠
⁠
visit : https://kards-for-kids-2.myshopify.com/collections to shop our kard designs! ⁠
⁠
Every dollar raised goes right back into creating moments that matter — helping Kids Up Front Vancouver provide tickets and experiences to children and youth through over 102 local family-serving charities. These experiences in arts, culture, and sports foster connection, build confidence, and inspire hope within our community.⁠
⁠
🌟 You can help us make a difference! Like, share, and spread the word about our campaign — every post shared helps raise awareness and fills more empty seats with kids who need them most.⁠
⁠
Because sometimes, it just takes one adult showing up to change a child’s life. ❤️⁠
