About

Let one of our Meals on Wheels homebound seniors or an adult with disabilities know that their community cares about them.  Especially now during the COVID-19 crisis, these cards can help lift someone's spirits as many are isolated and alone.  Each week we pack a card into every clients' meal that is safely delivered by one of our volunteer drivers.  You'll have fun tapping into your artistic side, and you'll feel good, too, knowing that you're are making a difference in the lives of so many of the elderly in your community.

GUIDELINES

•Cards must be small enough to fit into our delivery bags - see dimensions below.
•Fold-over note cardstock (finished size: 4¼ x 5½) or an 8½ x 11 piece of paper can be folded inhalf and in half again (for stability and a finished size of 4¼ x 5½).
•Do not use glitter, macaroni, or other types of decoration that can easily come off.
•We do NOT need envelopes for the cards.•Remember, seniors often have poor eyesight. Keep print large and avoid cursive.
•Do not sign the cards, not even with your school or company name.
•Please avoid irony, slang, puns or jokey cards. Think of kind, sincere, and joyful messages and images.
•Please do not use any language that pertains to any religion.

Once you have registered for this opportunity, more information will be emailed to you with card ideas, mailing and dropping off location, etc.
