these are not going to be a single charity, I presume that at least each charity will have its own design Rather than presuming, and posting accordingly, how about posting when you find out? To my knowledge, Signature has not yet started.

<<these are not going to be a single charity, I presume that at least each charity will have its own design.>> I strongly disagree. Let's back up a minute. "Charities" would have to be big enough to rate their own personalized cards. A charity is trying to sell itself, to raise the public's awareness of its cause. They would have something to gain by having their name and logo splashed on the card. OTOH, a school--particularly a public school--isn't trying to sell itself. The schools are simply trying to raise money. It may be worth mentioning that governments--at least in my state--provide funding for buildings, for personnel, and for limited supplies. That means a large number of needs goes unfunded. Anything that a school wants that goes beyond the bare basics has to be funded from other sources, i.e. fundraising. Landscaping of school grounds is an example. Many, many miscellaneous expenditures you would expect to have governmental funding are actually paid for through fundraising. Most schools would be too small to rate a personalized card. The generic card would simply say "My Music Card" and have the music card logo. Regards, Suzanne
