Schools! Scout Troops! Youth Groups! Everyone else! Want to help us out with a special “March to a Million” project? Want to earn Community Service Hours? Read on!

Print one or more pages, grab a paper cutter or a pair of scissors, cut out each of the “mini care packages” printed on the page and send them to us for our #March2aMill celebration! Even if you can’t be with us in Van Nuys on December 7, you’ll be able to participate in the festivities from afar!
Each 8.5″ x 11″ page has 200 little images on it (see right for a tiny version of what the page looks like). When you cut up an entire page, please put the little boxes into a small ziploc bag and label the bag: “200 boxes.”
IMPORTANT: If you cut up more than one page, you may put up to 1,000 boxes into one baggie, but please clearly indicate the total number of boxes in each baggie you send to us.
And be sure to include your name and address so we can properly thank you for your help!
Want to earn Community Service Hours? We will provide One Hour of Community Service Credit for every five pages cut up (1000 mini care packages). If you want a Community Service Certificate, please include a self-
addressed stamped envelope along with the cut out boxes you send and we will mail the Certificate to you.
Send the cut out boxes to us at this address:
M2M Special Project
P.O. Box 3334
Chatsworth, CA 91313
Again: Please be sure to label the baggie(s) with the total number of cut out “mini care packages” inside each baggie.
Wondering what we’ll be doing with these little boxes? That’s a surprise — you’ll have to wait until our big event on December 7 to find out!
Thank you for your help and support!

Canoga Park Emblem Club #360-Count us in. I plan on being there Dec 7th. Can I bring the boxes that morning? Debe
Thank you so much, Debe! We would need to receive them by December 1st at the latest in order to use them in our big celebration on December 7. If you have any additional questions, please send an email to: opgrat@gmail.com
Does the print-out have to be colored?
No — it doesn’t.
Can I hand deliver my “mini packages” to the operation gratitude facility directly, since I live very close?
Yes! Check our Volunteer Hours of Operation here to be sure we’ll be there when you want to come by: http://www.operationgratitude.com/volunteer/volunteer-info-schedule/ THANK YOU!

Hello, is there a limit to how many boxes I can cut out and send in for Community service hours? I have the time and scissor skills to send you a lot. Can’t wait to help.
No limit at all–please cut up as many as you’d like. Just please be sure to label the baggies with the number of care packages in each baggie. Thank you!
Do I just cut it out? That is it right?
Yes — cut each individual box out. Thank you! 🙂
Just making sure, the boxes are really small right? I’m just a bit confused as to how big each little box is.
Yes, they’re really, really small — 200 fit on a single page. THANK YOU for your help! 🙂
Is it okay if there is a little white border around the blue of the little boxes?
Yes, Denise, that’s fine. Thank you!
This is all so awesome and exciting. (And I think I figured out what you will be doing with these). I plan to particpate (wish I could be THERE on the 7th) and hope to get others to join in. Good luck. I KNOW it will happen!!
Thank you for all your support!
What size is the certificate? Will do!
The certificate is half-sheet size — 4.25″ x 5.5″ or so.
Thanks! You will have my support! Can’t wait to start.
Your link is broken.
Which link, Judy? The ones I tried work for me, but maybe I’m missing something? We can send the page as an attachment — request it by emailing opgrat@gmail.com Thanks!
The link bit.ly/14OYRem
Doesn’t work for me. And it seems I can’t email you, either. Consider this my request for an attachment if you can do that. Thanks.
So sorry for the trouble, Judy — an email is on its way to you now. THANK YOU for your help and support!
You can count on my help. I’ll be looking forward to December 7 so that I can find out what they are for!
