New Year's Cards

CardsDirect

Cards with New Year's greetings are good for those who are a little behind schedule as well as those who want to avoid the religious-or-secular greeting decision.  Here is a sampling of charities that offer them.

City Harvest

City Harvest (a New York City food rescue organization) has created a pear card that reads, "Wishing You Peace and Abundance in the New Year."

Veterans Moving Forward

Veterans Moving Forward, which provides service dogs to military veterans, sells four New Year's card designs.
