Laura Landerman-Garber has expanded a small family tradition into a full-blown nonprofit which will send 100,000 cards to US troops this holiday season.
"The thought of someone being away at a time when in our culture, in American culture particularly, the holidays are all about gathering together... for me, I wanted to be able to reach out and just maybe give a little bit of a bridge so that person who is far away feels a little tiny bit closer to home," Landerman-Garber told CNN.
