The Sonoma County Library recently launched a “send our seniors mail” program where folks can send decorated cards, postcards, hand-written messages or even drawings to seniors in local senior-care facilities this holiday season.
With more time at home these days, why not get out the crafts or holiday cards and brighten someone’s day by sending a positive and uplifting message?
Kids can make their own cards, draw a picture or write a special message. Adults can do the same or even write an encouraging letter.
When received, staff at care facilities will distribute the mail to those residents who need some happiness and cheer during this time.
When composing your card or letter make sure it is legible, in large print and is handwritten. Keep your messages thoughtful and kind.
The program is a one-way mail program so do not include any requests for reciprocation.
