I came across this today and help if you can:
Craig is a 7-year-old boy with a brain tumor who wants to get into the Guiness Book of World Records by collecting the most business cards.

Please send One card from your company to

Craig Sheppard
c/o Make-a Wish Foundation
300 East Perimeter Center
Atlanta, GA 30346

DON'T ITS A HOAX.

Thanks Alan!!
 
Please don't be insulted but

The truth from Snopes

The most important part is:

One of the addresses used in the "request for cards" letter is that of the "81 Perimeter Center East" in Atlanta, which before the emergence of the hoax was the office of the Children's Wish Foundation International. The foundation had to relocate because of all the unwanted Shergold mail. The U.S. Postal Service in Atlanta holds the hoax mailings (now more than 100 million) for a required length of time and, after they remain unclaimed, releases them to an Atlanta paper recycler. So end all those thousands of business cards everyone was scurrying around to gather up and mail off.

Don't feel bad; this happens all the time. At least your heart is in the right place. ;)
