I would love to do a postcard exchange with all 50 states. ANy idea on how I can get started?

Posting here is a great start

You can also consider having your students (I'm not sure how old they are) write letters of request to the chamber of commerce in the capital of each state (you can find this information online). They are all great at sending postcards and other great resources.

When I did this a few years ago, I found a flight attendant who was willing to send my students a postcard from where she landed (sometimes they would come several at a time in an envelope). Do you have a parent/community member with this sort of connection?

Good luck! This is a fun project!

It might be too late to start one for this year, as we are trying to wrap up exchanges before the holidays for most of the lists I am on. There is a link on my Postcard Exchange page for one of the exchanges I am on. Feel free to take a peek.
