Craig Shelford Make-A-Wish Request

July 1999

Craig Shelford wanted to be in the record books but we suspect that he
and the Make-a-Wish Foundation would really like it if everyone would
stop sending them business cards. According to the Make-A-Wish
foundation, Craig did have a request, but it was to another foundation.
He wanted to receive greeting cards and after receiving 16 million of
them by 1990 would like them to stop. He survived the tumor and went to
college.

Dear Friend: We have been asked to participate in a request that a
business card be sent to Craig Shelford at the address shown below. 
Seven year-old Craig has a brain tumor and has little time to live. 
Craig turned in a wish to the Children's Make-A-Wish Foundation
expressing his desire to have an entry in the World Book of Records for
the largest collection of business cards received by one individual. 
Please take the time to retype this letter on your letterhead and send
it to 20 businesses of your choice to help Craig's wish come true.
PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE IN YOUR RESPONSE AS TIME IS OF THE UTMOST
IMPORTANCE. Please send your business card to: Craig Shelford C/O
Make-A-Wish Foundation 320 Perimeter Center, East Wing Atlanta, Georgia 
 30358
