While Polaris is a fair symbolic choice it is a horrible choice if you want to actually have any chance that there is life at the recipient star. The chances of Polaris having any planets is very, very low (because it is a volatile binary pair and Polaris itself is an old star that is off the main sequence now and would have fried any planets that existed).
