Email the White House Correspondence Office with the particulars ... her name, her date of birth, where you want the card sent, and your email address where they can get back to you. Do it about 4-6 weeks ahead of the big day ... they get a lot of requests.

Answer 2

The White house sent my grandfather a very nice plaque when he hit 100. He made it to 102. He cherished it.

That was back in the 90's. I hope the practice continues today. Send letters to all the local papers,but contact by email or letter the White House.

God Bless Your Grandmother!

If you send an email to the white house they usually send letters out to people turning 100. Also some of the TV stations recognize this as well.
