Postcards to the Front Australia

Postcards to the Front will never ask you for money. If you receive a request for money, it is not us. You are being scammed. We do accept unused postcards and stamps. We mail in bulk and a postcard to Ukraine only costs us between 20-50 cents each.

Our mission is to solicit postcards from Australians with messages of encouragement and support to Defenders of Ukraine on the front lines.

We send postcards in bulk to our Founder Tamara Levit in Zaporizhia, Ukraine. 

The cards are added to care packages which are hand delivered to the front lines. 

Since we started in mid March 2023 we have sent 11,071 postcards of support. Updated  29 APRIL 2024

How to take part in this project:

1. Obtain one or more postcards. Yes, very old technology . Scroll down to find out where they are hiding .

2. Address your message to Defender of Ukraine. The front line defenders may be soldiers (both men & Women), Nurses, Doctors, Civilians etc. Write in either English or Ukrainian. 

3. Use the entire back of the card to write your message. No need for a stamp on the postcard as we send them in bulk and they are hand delivered in Ukraine.

4. Please do not use the word PEACE. This word has acquired a new meaning in Ukraine. When the Russians invaded, they told people they were doing this for peace. The word now conjures up images of people being killed, and property being destroyed.

5. Please don't use a capital letter when referring to russia or russians. If referring to Putin please use the words Putin khuylo!

6. Please print rather than write in a cursive script. With cursive it is difficult to distinguish the letters in a word. Printing makes it easier to read. English is usually a second, third or fourth language.

7. Mention you are from Australia, this really cheers people up. Remind them that the world hasn’t forgotten them. Don't forget to write at least your first name on the card. That makes for a personal connection.

8. No need for a return address on the card. Defenders are being shelled and shot at. They haven't got time to write back.

9. Place your postcard(s) in an envelope and address them to Postcards to the Front PO Box 565 Williamstown Vic 3016, or  Postcards to the Front 3 Elgin St Newport Vic, 3015. Please include your name and emails address so we can let you know that they have arrived.

10. Repeat steps 1-9 as often as required. Each card makes that personal one to one connection. Remember you can do these steps with a friend or two, or three..............
