Dear Citizen Stamp Advisory Committee,

I respectfully request your recognition of all family caregivers in America by honoring us with a United States Postage Stamp. Family caregiver responsibilities span endless hours and reach across all boundaries of ages, demographic and economic groups with almost everyone at some time in their lives either being a caregiver or needing a caregiver. Currently there are more than 50 million family caregivers in the United States. Services provided by family caregivers represent over 80% of all long term care services with a market value conservatively valued at more than $375 billion.

The National Family Caregivers Association and the Caregiver Community Action Network, its dedicated network of state volunteers, are proud to sponsor this U.S. Postage Stamp Campaign in honor of all the family caregivers in America. NFCA is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering family caregivers to act on behalf of themselves and their loved ones, and to remove barriers to their health and wellbeing by educating, supporting, empowering and speaking up for America's family caregivers. I respectfully request your recognition of all family caregivers in America with a United States Postal Stamp. Thank you kindly for your consideration.
