Lesson Plan_ Write a Letter To a Senior Img1.jpg

lovefortheelderly.org needs our help for their Letters of Love project! you can help from home by writing a letter or drawing a picture for an elderly stranger.

all ages

letters must be legible (large print) + handwritten.

no worries if you’re not artistic– make your card as what you’d like to receive.

embrace creativity!

recipients love it when the letters are personal. we encourage you to make your letters detailed, thoughtful, + heartfelt.

be kind + thoughtful (more than talking about yourself).

your letter recipient may be a stranger, but you can show them the kindness that you would show a friend!

envelope your letters if you can!

it’s so much nicer to open up an enveloped card, don’t you think? if you’re sending more than 1 letter, leave your enveloped letters unsealed + unstamped + put them in a larger envelope or box to send.
