Adoption Greeting Cards

Hi, this is Jeanette Broekman and Megan Whittington. We are both adoptees from the "closed adoption" era.

Are you looking for a card with a difference?

We know first hand what it's like to walk into the local news agency, spend hours looking for the "right" greeting card, only to walk out with a blank card, or even worse - walk out totally empty handed!!

You probably know exactly what that's like, and you probably have just got used to the idea that if you want to send a card to your Birth Mother, or a card to the child that you were not able to raise, or to the adoptive parents that raised you, or even if you are a friend of someone who is in the adoption triad, chances are - you'll hunt down a blank card, that has a nice picture on the front, and attempt to articulate your feelings in a meaningful way.

In the world of adoption, foster care, separation and reunion - it's not always that easy to articulate what it is that you are feeling.

The great news is, a collective group of people including adoptees, adoptive parents, birth parents, immediate family members, and friends have used their life experiences to bring you a range of greeting cards that acknowledge all aspects of the adoption, separation and reunion experience from many perspectives.

More great news is... the cards are showcased right here on this site, and are also available for purchase. So without further ado....we wish you a successful card hunting experience!!

No more blank cards!

All prices shown on the site are GST inclusive in Australian dollars, postage will be calculated on check out. We ship world wide.
