Join Our International Secret Santa Postcard Exchange!

The holiday season is here, and what better way to celebrate than by connecting with our global diabetes community through a special postcard exchange? This year, we're excited to bring our Secret Santa Postcard Event to an international level, sharing a bit of cheer, warmth, and community with friends from around the world!

How It Works:

  1. Register by December 1st using the form provided on this page. Anyone with a mailing address can participate, no matter where you live!

  2. On December 2nd, you’ll receive an email with the names and addresses of three random participants from around the world.

  3. Send a postcard to each of your three assigned Secret Santas. Aim to mail them by December 5th — earlier is even better — to help ensure they arrive by the holidays!

  4. You can craft, draw, photograph, print, write, or even use a traditional postcard — whatever you like. Just remember to mail your three postcards on time so they can bring some holiday cheer before the season’s end.

  5. And with a little luck, you’ll also find three surprise postcards from community members in your mailbox to make your holiday even brighter!

Share a Selfie!

Our #dedoc° Secret Santa is even more fun when everyone can join in! To spread the joy and help us all connect, we’d love it if you shared a photo with your postcards.

  1. Snap a “Secret Santa Selfie” (a photo of you with the cards you receive) to show off your holiday cheer — maybe even in front of your holiday decorations!

  2. Post Your Photo Over the Holidays to Thank Your Secret Santas:

  • Instagram: Share your photo as a post or a story. Tag our account @dedoc_org so we can see it and, with your permission, share it too!

  • Facebook: Post your photo directly on the #dedoc° Facebook page.

  • Twitter/X: Share your photo on Twitter/X with the hashtag #dedoc.

We can’t wait to see all the beautiful postcards and smiles from around the world. Happy holidays from the #dedoc° team!
