Postcards for Jack

Brian, one of Jack's best friends, came up with an idea to help keep Jack's spirits up. He is spearheading this project, and has shared about it via social media in hopes of spreading the word. Here's what he wrote:
This past month, a very close friend of mine named Jack was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Jack and I walked together at our high school graduation less than a month ago and now he is fighting for his life against this dreaded disease. To help him with his fight against cancer, some friends and I are hoping to start a special project to encourage him during his battle. This project is called Postcards for Jack, in which we hope to have a postcard sent to him from all 50 states (or anywhere in the world!) with an encouraging message written for him.
If you have a chance, I ask that you please share this with family, friends and anyone else you may know. If you are willing to send a postcard to Jack, please send it to the following address:
6100 Richfield Road Flint, MI 48506
Thank you for sharing your words of encouragement and lifting up our spirits. Your support in this way will help give Jack even more strength to keep up the fight! #JackUpCancer
If you'd like to follow Jack's postcard progress, the map below shows from what states Jack has already received postcards. And click here if you'd like to see the postcards themselves. Whether your state has reached out to him or not, we're sure he'd love to hear a word of encouragement from you!
