No time to take a cheesy holiday family photo this Christmas season?

Don't worry, the Winnipeg Jets have you covered.

Well, their wives and girlfriends have you covered, to be more exact.

Together, they've packaged four sets of seven holiday cards designed by Jets players and their families to raise funds for autism.

There's a little something here for everyone.

For Blake Wheeler fans.

Or Mark Scheifele fans.

And just when you thought it couldn't get any better, there's a little something special for Drew Stafford fans. 

The sets sell for $14.99 each and help raise funds for Can Do People, a nonprofit organization in support of those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder or other intellectual or developmental disabilities.

This is the second year the Jets' wives and girlfriends have organized an annual charity endeavour, partnering with a registered charity in Manitoba to raise awareness for its cause.

This year, they expect to raise $15,000 for Can Do People.
