For the fifth year, NewsChannel 3 is partnering with the American Red Cross to create holiday cards for service members.
After the cards are made, the Red Cross sends them to troops serving around the world.
So far, more than 8,500 cards have been made, but we're trying to beat last year's total of 12,000.
You only have until Friday December 7th.
You'll have a chance to make cards at the Oceanfront this weekend during the holiday parade at the Beach.
