How Your Cricut Can Make a Difference with Cardz for Kidz

In a world where small gestures matter, a handmade card can brighten someone's entire day. Whether it’s a child in the hospital, a senior in a care home, or a healthcare hero after a long shift—your creativity has the power to uplift hearts.

Cardz for Kidz + Cards for a Cause is a nonprofit organization that collects and distributes heartfelt handmade cards to people in need of encouragement all over the world. With expanded reach and delivery to more places than ever before, your cards can now touch even more lives.

Crafting Compassion: Cards for Kids, Seniors & More

Being hospitalized or isolated can be especially hard for children and older adults. A colorful card with a kind message can be a powerful reminder that someone cares.

At Bella Carta Design, we’re proud to support this mission—and we know that crafters like you can make a huge impact. Using your crafting skills and cutting machine, you can create one-of-a-kind cards that bring real comfort and joy.

Honoring Healthcare Heroes

Don’t forget the caregivers! Healthcare workers and support staff often go the extra mile, and your cards can be a touching reminder of how appreciated they are.

Your handmade notes can boost morale and offer encouragement to those working behind the scenes to keep others safe and well.

How to Get Involved
