Last month, Hallmark made it easier for us to stay in touch with our loved ones. The retailer mailed out two million free cards (delivered in packs of three) to those who signed up at , ultimately helping us stay connected with friends and family who might be far away. No purchase was required — all customers had to do was provide their address. Within a week, the cards had all been claimed, prompting Hallmark to crank out a whole new batch with a new purpose: gratitude.
Hallmark is currently giving out another to help us say thanks to the people who have really been stepping up during these hard times. Those interested can head to to sign-up to receive a free three-card pack, while supplies last (666,000 packs will be sent out). Once again, the offer is open to all residents within the contingent United States and no purchase is necessary. According to Hallmark, "Kindness and intent to put more caring in the world is all you need to participate."

The retailer hopes that those who claim these cards will send a note of appreciation to someone who has helped them over the last couple weeks. Think: medical workers, delivery drivers, grocery store employees, teachers or anyone who you think deserves a big thank you. This pack includes a card which reads, "You Are So Amazing" in capital letters, as well as an illustration of helping hands forming a heart shape which reads, "What You Do Matters." The pack also includes a card to color-in (perfect for kids to give!) which reads, "Not All Heroes Wear Capes."
"The response to our first 2 million card giveaway showed just how much care, hope and love people want to put into the world right now, Lindsey Roy, CMO of Hallmark said in a statement. "We hope the next 2 million cards allow people to show the gratitude we know many are feeling right now – and to ensure those receiving those cards know just how much they are appreciated," she says.
