Your card is completely free! I do not charge people to receive a card, but if you would like to contribute towards it then please consider donating. Donations enable me to send out more cards as we run on very limited funds.
Will my address be stored?
I do not store any addresses submitted to me through the form. I can only view these through google forms and do not add them onto any documents or databases. The form response is deleted immediately after I write your address onto the envelope.
As addresses are not stored, does this mean that I can apply multiple times?
Theoretically yes! But I do ask that you are mindful of the fact that we are only a small organisation on very limited funds, therefore I discourage people applying multiple times in quick succession. However, if you have applied before and are now going through a rough patch and feel you could benefit from a second card then please don't let this put you off from applying.
Can I apply on behalf of someone else?
I ask that people only apply for a card for themselves or their child/someone living at the same address. This is because issues could arrive if someone isn't happy that their address has been shared with me without their permission. I politely ask that you tell your friend/whoever you plan to apply for, about what I do and encourage them or someone in their household to apply for them.
I do not have an official diagnosis. Can I still apply for a card?
Yes! During the application process you will never be asked for a diagnosis or a reason. This is none of my business. I also believe that so many people are living with illnesses or mental health conditions who don't have a diagnosis and I would hate for people to feel as if they can't apply.
DONATING
I run a small business and I sell cards/bookmarks/stickers. Where can I send these to as a donation?
I would be so grateful for these please! Please contact me and I will give you an address to send these too. I will also make sure to say thank you publicly on social media.
If I donate money through Paypal, what will the money go towards?
100%* of the money donated to 'JustANoteToSayHi' goes towards the costs involved with running the organisation. Such as, the cards and postage costs, as well as the costs of the website and promotion tools (such as flyers) to raise awareness. (*I used to take donations through GoFundMe, which would take a cut.. but I now use a Paypal pool).... Please contact me though if you donate and there is a specific thing you would like the money spent on and I will be more than happy to do this.
If you have any questions at all which are not answered above then please do not hesitate to contact me and I will be more than happy to help! There are loads of ways to get hold of me (the links are clickable):
