LWR Stamporee
The goal of the Lutheran World Relief Stamporee is to support
LWR's Project Comfort, which provides funding for the shipping of goods
to those in need around the world. All LWML societies are encouraged to
collect and save cancelled postage stamps and send them to the district
stamp chairman. Click here to download an information sheet about the
LWR Stamporee.
Here are a few pointers
about saving stamps:
• Buy and use commemorative stamps, since they are
worth more than common stamps.
• Save all cancelled stamps.
• Place stamps on envelope in the upper right hand corner, allowing
1/4 inch from each edge.
• Stamps need not be trimmed or removed from envelopes.
• IF trimming from envelopes, leave at least 1/4 inch around stamp.
Sorting into categories or weighing is not necessary. Do not soak
off!
