Postcards to the Front (Canada / Канада)

Canadians sending postcards with messages of support and encouragement to Ukraine’s frontline Defenders.

Trent Hills PROBUS

A warm reception, on a very hot June day, greeted us in Campbellford, Ontario, where we shared about Postcards to the Front with the membership of Trent Hills PROBUS. The welcoming PROBUS members wrote dozens of heartwarming postcard messages to Ukraine’s Defenders. Some were written soldier (veteran) to soldier. One wrote, “if I were younger, I’d join you!”

The goal of the PROBUS organization is to provide fellowship, friendship, and fun for individuals in their retirement and semi-retirement years. PROBUS is a volunteer-based, non-profit, non-political, non-sectarian fellowship organization with over 4,000 clubs worldwide, some 250 being Canadian clubs made up of over 35,000 members.

You can find out if there is a PROBUS chapter in your community in Canada here. Or, elsewhere, globally, here.

If your PROBUS chapter wants to learn more about Postcards to the Front, let us know at postcardstothefront.canada@gmail.com.

Need cards? Write to us at postcardstothefront.canada@gmail.com, and we’ll send you postcards to write to Defenders. FREE!

Need ideas about what to write? Check our Tips page, and our Ukrainian phrases page.

Maybe you want to organize a group of family, friends or others to write postcards? Check our website for tips, How to Run a Postcard-Writing Workshop. Consider a group effort this summer to help us with our Christmas in Ukraine campaign, so we can send a lot of messages of love and support in time for Christmas. By then, it will be nearly four years that Ukrainians have been defending their homes, their land, their freedom.

If you have some written cards ready for us to ship to Ukraine, here’s our address:
