Opportunity Details
HOLIDAY Letters to Seniors and Disabled Individuals
Help us bring some Holiday cheer to isolated seniors, seniors in nursing homes and/or disabled individuals in our communities by sending them heartfelt letters, letting them know that we care!
- We are looking for uplifting letters that will bring their recipients some joy!
- This month we are looking for Winter or Holiday letters and cards. You can incorporate the theme through art, by making your own themed cards and within the message of your letter.
- Once signed up, I will contact you with specific instructions for the letters and the address to send them to. Children are welcome to contribute also (an adult is required for minors to sign up).
Timeline
We are looking to have this round of letters completed and received by their recipients by 12/31/2022. Please allow a couple of days for mailing and distribution. If you are mailing letters for a specific holiday and would like them to arrive and be distributed before then, please mail the letters at least 1.5 weeks prior. For example, Christmas letters should be mailed at the latest by December 14th. Mail tends to get a bit slower as we near the holiday season and we want to give our contacts at the facility a few days to distribute the letters.
What to Expect
Volunteers will be required to have their own materials for the letters and any additional artwork you'd like to add, as well as stamps to mail the letters on hand (or you must be able to take them to the post office). I will try my best to provide you with one address for your letters so you can mail them together in a large envelope.
Please allow 48 hours for me to get back to you with the instructions.
If you are in need of community service hours, I am happy to confirm your hours for you. Please submit pictures of your letters as proof. We will be tracking and logging the actual time you spent working on the letters/cards and do NOT assign a specific number of letters per hour. Please check with your institution if they have specific requirements of how many letters you need to complete to get your hours approved.
Thank you so much for considering this opportunity!
