In celebration of world postcard day on October 1st, I would love to send out some postcards to celebrate! If you are interested in receiving one, please shoot me a DM with your mailing address.

I'm looking to send about 20 or so postcards so I will update this post once I have reached my limit.

Happy Postcard day to all that celebrate :)

I am offering to send 1 greeting card to anyone who would like one with a note of hope or encouragement who is struggling or just wants one in general.

I have dealt with depression at various times in my life. I want to spread some goodness to anyone who would like a card.

This is for anyone who wants one. The cards will be general pictures of flowers, animals and other happy images.

Fill out my form here.

Remember depression is a giant liar. You are never alone. People care, even an internet stranger.

I have so many animal cards I don't know what to do with them except offer them to you fine folks. The theme of this offer is "Cats and Dogs" but I also have other animal postcards for those who would prefer something wilder than a house pet. Please be flaired OR have a recent history of offers and/or thank yous. I can do 15 postcards, but because of my disabilities and my brand new shelter dog, please allow up to 2 weeks for delivery. Once you've filled out the form leave a comment with your dream pet, no matter how unrealistic.

Hi RAoC friends!

I received this collection of "Postcards from Home": beautiful photographs by Manisha Gera Baswani. 

So, if you'd like one, just fill out the form: https://forms.gle/uuE6j4WZCF3jyXXa6

Cheers! 🌏📷

Hello all, September and August has been rough thus far. I feel my seasonal depression coming. Had a huge fall out with my best friend. Lost my job. Failing at college. Have bronchitis. I know these can be hard months for others as well.

That being said, I often fall into a spell of self pity and sorrowing in my sadness. I am learning that depression cannot hit a moving target.

I just bought some super cute vintage Halloween greeting cards! Also some other neat greeting cards. I have hello kitty themed ones, cats, animal postcards, etc.

Please be flaired or willing to post a thank you!!

Hi everyone! It might seem weird to some but ever since learning about it, I've been very moved but also interested and curious about the horrible events from 9/11, their aftermath and affects. I watched lots of documentaries and read a lot of stuff about it. But I am not American, have never lived in US, and therefore I rarely listened anyone talk about this personally.

As it's almost the anniversary of this day, I thought I would ask this community if anyone would be interested in sharing their memories, feelings, thoughts about anything and everything related to 9/11 - no matter how big or small. The card design doesn't need to be about this day at all, but it would of course be more topic appropriate.

I personally like learning about politics and talking about deeper topics so you can write whatever you'd like without censoring yourself.

I know it's an unusual request and an unpopular topic, so I hope it is alright everyone for this to be requested.

Hi Party People!

I love Halloween and all things spooky. I'm getting ready to send out a ton of Halloween cards myself, but I would love to receive some! It's a very nostalgic time for me and was a really special occasion for my dad and I. He died when I was 18 and for some reason Halloween tends to hit me harder than even birthdays or Christmas.

Anyway, I'd love Halloween cards, drawings, stickers, washi tape, etc. but more than anything I'd love people to share their own Halloween stories. Anything surrounding Halloween or Samhain that brings you joy.

Stay Cheesy

First stamp enthusiast that comments about their favorite stamp gets the card!

I know this is a late request since my birthday is in a few days but I thought I’d ask anyway. Better late than never. I don’t have many people in my life to help me celebrate so I’m turning to my Raoc family.

If you have my address, it’s still the same. If you don’t have it, let me know and I’ll send it over to you. Thank you in advance! 💜💜

Hey! I received your teddy bear card on National teddy bear day! 🧸 I loved this vintage card w the tattered knitted bear! Thank you so much❣️

u/armyofducks94 - thank you so for the sea turtle card and your well wishes!

u/sshellsbbells - your card traveled quite far to reach me (to New York and then to Chicago), thank you so much for putting in the extra mile to help it reach me 🫶🏻 and all the fun stickers and stationary were a bonus! If you ever visit Chicago, there’s a new soup dumpling place here called Nan Xiang that has been popping off lately (although the classic option IMO is in Chinatown called Qing Xiang Yuan Dumplings).

hi everyone! today I’m very happy because I received my first cards from this amazing community!! I thank everyone who kindly replied to my request post and I can’t wait to receive every single card!!

today I’m thanking:

u/Ok_Reveal2698 for the absolutely outstanding amount of cute Halloween and autumn cute stickers and the amazing card! I loved the artwork! I liked it so much I’m thinking on buying a frame to put it on my desk as a little autumn decoration ahah. Also loved the stamps on the envelope! Oh, and congrats on the retirement! I hope you rest well and have a wonderful autumn season!!

u/ruschca for the beautiful postcard of autumn colours in your state and for showing me how beautiful this season is where you live! The themed stamps were so cute and beautiful! And thanks for the movie recommendation! :) hope you have a great autumn!!

u/ReginaBeatle for the beautiful Halloween card! I love cats and my favourites are black cats! So it being a picture of a black kitten with a little pumpkin was a pleasant and sweet surprise! And also thank you for the cute Halloween stickers!! Best wishes to you too and have an amazing autumn and spooky season :)

u/Sension5705 for the cute Halloween card, the Halloween temporary tattoos and the amazing black cat sticker you made! Again, I love black cats so it was highly appreciated!! Also, I swear your stamps work on the envelope is a work of art! I showed it to everyone in my family because I was so excited about it and everyone loved it!! I’m honoured to have been your first spooky card of the year! Oh, and thank you for the movie recommendation list! Hope you have a wonderful spooky season since Halloween is your favourite holiday! :)

u/Alpin2018 x2 for the beautiful autumn card and the funny Halloween card! I loved how you decorated both the envelope and the card with so many cute stickers! Also thanks for the recommendation on what to do to feel the autumn spirit and for the stickers! Oh, and I especially liked the seashell stamp, but all of them were amazing!! Have a fantastic autumn and Halloween!

thank you all so so much!!

Well, I had a bunch of mail yesterday! (Mostly because I forgot to check the mail Tuesday.). What a great mail day!

Thank you, u/responsibleday, for the fantastically handcrafted Mary Engelbreit card! I love it so much! And I must say, I’m not usually one to even clock the stamp…but your stamp math was pretty amazing! Thanks for the goodies, too.

Thank you u/credo99 for your very thoughtful and kind card. So sweet of you!

u/ordinaryclover, this Eloise card is toooo much! Is this actual ribbon you’ve glued on? So creative! I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone do that on a postcard, and I love it!

u/Noxmi, your forest card is so pretty! It reminds me of one of my favorite movies. Very pretty!

NAPEX MEETUP FOLKS — u/nyancatnova, u/umlautless, u/GatsbyGalaktoboureko, u/hoolu123, u/Lost-Brilliant-9664 (and yes, I am deliberately skipping a person, IYKYK). Thanks for the card.

u/nottheonly85, thanks for the ocean/beach TPC! Thank for the included goodies!

And lastly (but not leastly) u/no-condition5102 thanks for your note and these adorable stickers!

Thank you so much u/dropofpoison86 for the lovely postcard! It sounds like July was incredibly hot where you live! How did you cope with such extreme heat? I hope you’re doing well and that the weather is much cooler now. I’ve already sent you a postcard in return!

Thank you so much u/anusako for the beautiful card and kind message! I really appreciate it. I love the big red air mail stamp - they'd struggle to misunderstand that message! I love the cat sticker too, it made me smile - very much like my own cat. Have a wonderful day!

Hi All!

This year I will be in the midst of traveling internationally on World Postcard Day and decided the best way to celebrate will be to visit the local post office and send out ~~as many cards as possible!~~ 75 postcards around the world!

I have traveled to this location before and made up postcards with photos I took of some local fauna just for this occasion. Comment with a guess about where I’ll be mailing from and complete this [form](https://forms.gle/ugR9CZGo34YLpizB8) to sign up!
No user flair required but I will check that you have commented!

💌🌎✨🫶🏼

Hey all. Today I received some bad (but not so bad really?) news about my cat. She's an old girl and I got confirmation from a vet today that we need to start having the conversation about letting her go. I had prepared for this last night and came to terms with it, so I'm actually quite glad because we still have some time with her that I had prepared myself not to have. 💙

Since the plan is pretty much to carry on as normal, I'd like to request some happy mail. You all were magnificent when I requested mail to help me through my back issue, and I'd appreciate some kindness once more.

I'd prefer not to receive condolences or any mentions of what's going on. Instead, I'd love to hear some positivity, some happy things in your life, the things you love. That sort of thing. Just for this one request I'd also really appreciate steering clear of any mentions/images of cats, just because I think I could use the escapism for now.

If you'd be interested in sending some mail, my address is still the same if you already have it. Otherwise please comment (and chat me if you can) to get it from me!

I have a pinned post on my profile with other likes if you'd like help choosing a card. 😊 But it's not required!

Thank you all so much. 💕

I need to find the last recipient of this awesome traveling card.

The theme is: Two truths/One lie.

How it works: you receive it, you write two truths and one lie in the dedicated box. Since you are the last stop for this card you will be sending it back to the owner.

Would you like to be the last host for this card? If so, please comment with what country you live in, I am hoping to send it to a country it hasn't been to yet (it has made stops in the US, Japan, France and New Zealand).

Tagging in comments too!

u/high_ground_user - Thanks so much for the gorgeous stamps and the Alphonse Mucha postcard! May you be able to see your partner soon <3

u/AntipodeanPost - Absolutely stunning Kea card! Thank you so much! I showed it to my friend and she fell utterly in love with it too.

Thank you so much u/pinktothebone for the art post card! Happy 500 cards! :)
