Im making some invitations for someone with cancer.....?
Her treating hospital/doctor should have information on how to make donations to their facility.





Donating directly to a facility or hospital is better because there is no middle man taking a cut the way most organizations do.





I always felt like I was doing something that mattered when I donate to my hospital. THey have donation accounts set up already. I know all my money is going to research or other patients to get meds they cant afford.





So, insert the information pamphlet into the invites, and then just say, so and so has requested that you help others in lieu of gifts.
Reply:THINK ABOUT GIVING





Let us help this world to become a better place,


Think about giving and helping the human race.


Think about the sick, disabled and the poor,


Think about the suffering and do we care anymore.


Think of children with cancer or those totally blind,


Think of those for whom life’s been so unkind.


Think about our children and the future they hold,


Think of the world they’ll live in when they get old.


Think about the innocent deaths, from crime and war,


Think about our lives and what we’re fighting for.


Think of abused children and those with no home,


Think of the elderly and disabled living all alone.


Think of the innocent imprisoned, longing to be freed.


Please! Think about giving and helping those in need.

But if you'd like to make a gesture
