Anthony Crawford (Washington, DC)

MERRY 'EFFIN CHRISTMAS

ACR1014
Regular price $5.50

This card was inspired by Anthony Crawford of Washington, DC. “Sometimes people say Merry Christmas, but they don’t sound so merry,” he says. He feels that holidays can sometimes stress you out and hopes that this card makes even the crustiest grinch smile. After being homeless for nearly 20 years, Anthony got the keys to his own apartment on July 15, 2013. Today he earns enough money to pay his rent by selling the Street Sense newspaper at the corner of 19th & M – just a block away from where he used to sleep on the street. Although he experienced some setbacks in 2016 after suffering a stroke, Anthony says that he is thankful to have a safe place to sleep and the opportunity to work.

Anthony receives 15% of the sales from this card. Second Story Cards donates an additional 10% to a charity of the cardmaker's choice. Anthony has chosen Street Sense Media for this card. 

Size: A2 (5.5" x 4.25")
