U.S. CITIZENS ONLY: The White House will send greetings to United States citizens only, for special occasions as outlined below.

ADVANCE NOTICE REQUIRED: Your request must be received six (6) weeks in advance of the event date.

• Baby's Birth (must be born during the President's Administration; send request only after baby's birth)
• Eagle Scout Award
• Girl Scout Gold Award
