My dear aunt Masha has down's syndrome and every year, months before her birthday, she excitedly tells everyone she can that her birthday is December 1st. whenever she would meet people, she would tell them, ‘My birthday is December 1st” And she would ask them to send a card. Masha likes to get mail and gifts, just like—but even more—than everyone else.

She is turning 55 years old but has the heart of a 12 year old. This is the twelfth year that I am posting online for her birthday. The last year she got quite a few cards and was so happy to run to her mailbox everyday. She was THRILLED! So beautiful people of the world -- can we do this again??

She lives in a kibbutz in Israel for adults with disabilities. It would mean the world to her to get birthday cards for her 54th birthday :) Masha only reads English, but any language will be fun and exciting. She is a fan of Hello Kitty, Pokemon, Tamagotchi, any Disney characters and loves animals too! But really anything would do.

If you are interested in sending a card, please comment and I will message you MY address.

Thank you all in advance for this act of kindness!

Thank you to everyone that sent and shared my post requesting birthday cards for my dear aunt Masha's birthday last year You all made her day so special! Every day, Masha would excitingly run to her mailbox to get her cards, she would then FaceTime me and show me the new cards she got that day. This is the 12th year that I organized this for her. Masha received over 200 cards last year. The coolest part is that Masha waits until Dec. 1 to open them all.

So thank you again to everyone that was involved. May we all be blessed to do something simple for our fellow humans. Thank you again!

Ahh, my grandmother spends all day, every day, making cards! She would be beside herself with joy to send a card to your family member. And, if it is okay, I’m sure she would appreciate your blessing to send additional cards for holidays.

I'd love to make a card! I actually just received some Hello Kitty stickers, and I have a ton of Pokemon cards. Let me know if she's got a favorite Pokemon and I'll see if I've got a card of that one :)

Please pm me the address. I'm a December baby too. Does she have a favorite color? I know you said any Disney characters, but is there a favorite movie?
