Overwatch Greeting Card Co. Delivers 1,941 Christmas Cards to Veterans Across Missouri
Missouri — Overwatch Greeting Card Company announced the successful completion of its 4th Annual Christmas Cards for Veterans program, delivering 1,941 hand-signed Christmas cards to Veterans across the state of Missouri.
This year’s effort focused on deeper in-state impact, with expanded deliveries to Veterans Affairs facilities from St. Louis and Mexico, Missouri, as well as a significant increase in outreach to assisted living and memory care communities that serve Veterans. While fewer cards were shipped out of state, the program intentionally concentrated resources where personal delivery and connection could be maximized.
Nine volunteers dedicated their time to hand-signing and personally delivering each card, ensuring that every message carried genuine appreciation and care. All 1,941 cards were fully donated by Overwatch Greeting Card Company as part of its ongoing mission to honor service, sacrifice, and family.
“Every card represents more than paper and ink,” said Lloyd Wideman, founder of Overwatch Greeting Card Company. “It’s a reminder to our Veterans that they are seen, remembered, and appreciated, especially during the holidays, when loneliness can be felt most deeply.”
The Christmas Cards for Veterans program has grown steadily each year:
Year One: 25 cards delivered
Year Two: Just over 100 cards
Year Three: 1,100 cards
Year Four: 1,941 cards delivered
The program’s growth reflects continued commitment to reaching Veterans where they live and receive care.
Overwatch Greeting Card Company extends heartfelt thanks to the volunteers, facilities, and community partners who made this year’s effort possible. Their time, compassion, and willingness to help deliver messages of gratitude made a meaningful difference for nearly two thousand Veterans this Christmas season.
“Our hope is simple,” Wideman added. “That every Veteran who received a card felt remembered, and that others feel inspired to find their own way to say thank you with a card from the Overwatch Greeting Card Co.”
