In 6 different colors depending on Survivors, Non-Survivors, Expectant, General Info for Hospitals, Doctors, and Grandparents. We haven't been able to afford the printing and postage (can be quite heavy) for these folders in a couple of years because we haven't had the funds. Now you can help us to offer this service again! These packets are made of regular school 2-pocket folders. They include our Parent Reference Guide, brochure, old newsletters, new newsletter, Parent Membership Form, and other hand outs. This is a great project for your family reunion, remember a cherub on their birthday or memorial day for a cherub who has passed away, a fun project at a birthday party for a surviving cherub (award a prize for the most folders put together correctly!). You can recruit your family, friends, neighbors, church, class, troop or any group of people. For donating these packets and putting them together on the inside you can put a "This CHERUBS packet was donated in honor/memory of ___________________" sticker. You can print the paperwork from our web site and donate the printing, folders, envelopes, manual labor and postage. This costs about $5.00 per packet but often printers will give discounts and some smaller supply stores may donate folders and paper. Below is a list of our types of folders: Yellow Folders - for hospitals to give to new parents Green Folders - for doctors to keep on file for new patients Purple Folders - for expectant parents Blue Folders - for grieving parents Red Folders - for parents of survivors and adult survivors You can send yellow folders directly to hospitals and all other folders to us. You can click on our downloads section to download all the files needed to print for each packet.

Just so I can make sure I am on the right track so here are all my questions. 1. Do we have a list of what goes in each packet? How each one is different? I have yellow and green folders-So... I am guessing we put one of each handout in the yellow but what about the green? Are they for doctors to hold on to and give handouts to new patients-in that case would we put say 10 of each brochure, PRG, etc... in those? The green go to high risk OB's and peds surgions? 2. How many folders would you send to the hospitals to have? I know I have more questions but thats all I can think of right now. I hope that all makes sense. I just don't want to be putting together the wrong thing!
