Free Kwanzaa E-cards

A Selection of the Best, Free Kwanzaa Ecards to Sent to Your Family and Friends!

Britt Baker
Kwanzaa is a wonderful celebration where one can share free e-cards with their family and friends. Here's some background on Kwanzaa:

The celebration of Kwanzaa was developed in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga to celebrate African heritage. It is celebrated annually, around the same time as Christmas and Hanukkah. The Kwanzaa celebration lasts seven days, from the 26th day of December to the 1st day of January, and each of these days is celebrated with devotion to one of seven principles (unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith). Kwanzaa is not a religious celebration nor is it a gift giving celebration. Instead, Kwanzaa is a celebration of the African community and heritage. It is a time of sharing and remembering values.

There are many free Kwanzaa e-cards available on the Internet to commemorate this very special annual celebration. Here are some of the best ones!

123 Greetings (http://www.123greetings.com/events/kwanzaa/), a very popular website with e-cards for nearly every occasion, has a wonderful selection of free Ecards for Kwanzaa. It even has some great, free Kwanzaa e-cards that would be especially perfect for kids! You will notice many of their free Kwanzaa e-cards show seven candles. These candles represent the seven principles celebrated during Kwanzaa. Each day, during Kwanzaa, one candle is lit, and that candle represents one of the seven principles.

Here are some of the best, free Kwanzaa e-cards from 123 Greetings:

Although, 123 Greetings, has the best, free Kwanzaa e-card selection to my knowledge, here are some other sites that have free Kwanzaa e-cards to share with your family and friends this December:

Yahoo! Greetings

eCardica.com

Hallmark

egreetings.com

Just keep in mind some of these sites require free trials for your free Kwanzaa e-card.

Have a very joyous and peaceful Kwanzaa, and remember to send your free Kwanzaa e-cards out to your friends and family by December 26th!
