Each year here at Echo Park Paper, we try to reach out and help a family or charity in need during the holiday season. We've been so blessed this year that we want to pay it forward a little bit, and we need your help.
This year we'd like to make and donate tags to our local children's hospital: Primary Children's Medical Center. This amazing organization helps children in need and does amazing work to make the children feel well taken care of and loved during their stay. My oldest son, Joseph, spent many nights in this same hospital during his treatment for cancer. Beyond teenagers, Primary Children's helps newborns, toddlers, and children of all ages.
Each time a newborn baby is admitted to or born in this hospital, they hang a handmade name tag from their basinet. We'd like some help in sending them some beautiful tags made with Echo Park Paper products.
To participate:
* Create a 3x6" or 4x8" name tag (leaving room for the hospital staff to write the infant's name). See sample below.
* Please include your name and email address on a post-it note or slip of paper in your package.
* Mail your tag to:
Echo Park Paper
ATTN: Children's Tags
1177 South 1680 West
Orem, UT 84058
We will hand deliver the tags to the hospital for the newborn babies after the deadline.
DEADLINE: All tags must arrive at our office by December 18th.
Help a Family In Need: We want to do a little bit more to pay it forward, so we'll select four of the tag designers from those tags we receive. Those winners can then select a family you think deserves $100 AND some Echo Park products. We'll mail the family the check and the products directly from our offices. Winners will be announced on December 19th so we can mail out the prize as soon as possible.
Here is a sample from the hospital of the tags they are currently using. Please use this as an example of how much room they need for the babies' names.
