How to Order a Free 80th Birthday Card From the White House

It's so easy to request an eightieth birthday card from the White House. If you'd like to have the First Lady and President of the United States send a personalized, signed birthday card to someone celebrating an 80th birthday, it might just be the best birthday card they receive.
There is no charge for this wonderful service that shows acknowledgement from the White House to an 80 year old! What better way to celebrate an 80th birthday than by having a birthday card sent by our First Lady and President! And along with this special card, we recommend this great box of retro candy especially for an 80th birthday.

To Submit your Request:

Plan ahead, because this free service is extremely popular. The Obama White House is notifying people that it can take months between the time your request is processed by the Greetings Office to when the birthday card is actually mailed out. So plan accordingly!!

Mail your request to:

White House
Greetings Office
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, D.C. 20502-0039

These are the requirements for the 80th birthday card:

First off, you have to be a citizen of the United States. If you are a veteran turning 70 or older, you qualify. Otherwise you have to be turning 80 or older to qualify for this special birthday card.
