IrishMum Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 A local boy, here in Melbourne, Australia, is suffering with cancer and has a birthday wish. Rafael is turning 10 in a few weeks, and he would love to receive lots of cards for his birthday. If anyone would like to help his dream come true, please send cards to Rafael @ PO Box 1617, Werribee, 3030, Australia. You can have a look at the cards my boys have made for Rafael, http://airskull.com/rafaels-birthday-wish/ Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest submarines Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Two of my kids are making cards. Is this the full address? Google maps say "Werribee Victoria"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Werribee in Victoria, but the 3030 tells the post office the Victoria bit. You can add Victoria or leave it out. Thanks so much 67_others.

Guest submarines Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 DS9 drew a spider man, and DD5 made two post cards--one with "an imaginary horse", and one with trees. Do you think it is more fun for him to mail each card separately with cool stamps on them, or to put the 3 in one envelope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put them all in the same envelope, but yeah if I had of thought about it, I might have mailed them separately. My boys did put a home made wax seal on the envelope :) That should be fun to open.

A card is a card, home-made or otherwise, it will still bring him joy. Thanks a million mumto2!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerileanne99 Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 We are on vacation at the moment, but think we will drop a postcard in the mail from each place we visit in the next few days. I hope he gets a truckload of cards and letters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never mailed anything internationally, can someone tell me what kind of stamps and about how much to put on envelope? Yes, you can just drop it in the post or mailbox...but you will need an international stamp or equivalent US postage stamps. The current cost of an international stamp is $1.15. If I don't have any on hand I have been known to just put on 3 US stamps and send it off, but you can always take it to the PO to be metered:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
