Postcard Instructions

Thank you so much for writing postcards for the Micheal for Cobb campaign! In your kit, you will find a set of postcards and address labels. We have not provided postage in kits, but we are happy to pick up finished cards once finished. If you wish to donate postage and mail out yourself, we are extremely grateful for that contribution to our effort! It really adds up.

Below you will see some examples of postcards that others have done. The message is flexible. Essentially we’d love for you to talk about why you support Micheal and why you think the recipient should support him too.

Postcard FAQ

What order do I follow the steps necessary to complete a postcard?

Write the card first, then add the address label, and lastly put the stamp on the card.

What do I do if I make a mistake on a postcard?

Minor mistakes are totally okay. Using whiteout or whiteout tape can come in handy, but with small mistakes you can cross something out and keep going with the message. If a card has a major issue, you can throw it out. But the bar for deciding to throw out a card should be very high.

A good practice is to write out your message on a separate sheet of paper to get an idea if it will fit on the card.

What do I do once my batch is done?

Reach out to us at volunteer@michealforcobb.com and let us know whether you donated stamps and mailed them or if we need to pick them up to add postage. Then let us know when you’re ready for more cards!
