Cards-by-Caiti was started by Caitlin O'Meara at the age of 9, after she learned her friend, Emily, had been diagnosed with pediatric cancer. Expressing the desire to help Emily in any way she could, her family suggested sharing her talent as an artist with the public, while making a difference for children with cancer. Scans of her original artwork have been resized and made into 4 ¼" x 5 ½" blank note cards.
In cooperation with Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital Circle of Friends, Caitlin is selling each set of 10 blank note cards and envelopes for $10. Net proceeds from the sale of these cards will be donated to Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital Pediatric Oncology Department in Emily's name.
Ordering is simple and completely secure with PayPal. You don't even need a PayPal account!
If you prefer not to use PayPal, just email us at cardsbycaiti@yahoo.com and include your name, address, phone number, and set quantity x $10.
Please indicate if you will pick up, need delivery (within a 5 mile radius), or USPS mail. Include $2.00 shipping & handling for the first set of cards, and $1 for each additional, to your payment. We will accept cash or checks made payable to Cards-by-Caiti.

On March 4th, 2007, Caitlin spoke at a "Circle of Friends" brunch attended by 150 Circle of Friends members, hospital staff, and Emily, presenting her first donation in the amount of $1,000. As of September 2008, Caitlin has raised over $4,000.
Caitlin also surprised Emily with a framed and matted original drawing, "Tea by the Eiffel Tower," featuring Emily and Caitlin sipping tea. This drawing is also the first card of the Paris Collection set of notecards.
