Send each other a thoughtful gift by mail

At this unusual time, it’s important to stay connected with each other, and drawnames.ca wants to help you do just that. Now it’s possible to draw names and fill in a mailing address so you can send each other thoughtful gifts by mail!

Remote gift exchange

How does it work?

1. Click on Start drawing names and check “Send each other gifts by mail” in the gift exchange details.
2. Each participant fills in their own mailing address.
3. Everyone sends a nice gift to their drawn name by mail.

What can you do?

Here are some ideas to show you still care, even when you can’t be together.

Send a card

Now more than ever, we need to stay connected. Add a special touch, by sending a nice greetings card or note to the person whose name you’ve drawn, along with your gift. You could also send some flowers and a card with a personal message.

Throw a virtual party

Look at the wish list of the person whose name you’ve drawn, choose a nice gift and send it by mail. Then you can all open your gifts together during a #virtualparty on your chosen date.
