Write a Letter

You can make an elder smile today
​
Everyone deserves a mailbox full of love letters, and we’re on a mission to make that happen– we're looking to sent letters of love around the world. So take a few minutes, sit down, and write a letter. Tell them about yourself; maybe share a joke or a riddle and let them know that they are loved.
How to write a letter
It might feel difficult at first to be writing to someone you don’t know.
Our advice: just pretend like it’s a conversation! What kinds of things would you want to talk about with a stranger?
Our Guidelines:
​
1. Letters must be legible (large print), handwritten, and include no glitter. No worries if you’re not artistic– make your card as what you’d like to receive.
​
2. Avoid religion and politics, if possible. Your letter should resonate with anyone.
​
3. Embrace creativity! Recipients love it when the letters are personal. We encourage you to make your letters colorful and fun– photos, crosswords, and drawings are great!
4. Be kind & thoughtful. You can include a return address, but please do not expect a letter back. We want to ensure recipients aren’t burdened by feeling obligated or unable to respond.
