    Description

    Create Valentine's Day Cards for Older Minnesotans!

    Valentine’s Day is a wonderful time to share love, kindness, and a little extra care—especially with older adults who may feel isolated or lonely during the winter months. Are you or someone you know looking for a meaningful way to spread joy and make someone feel loved this Valentine’s Day? If so, we’ve got the perfect opportunity to make a difference!

    Friends & Co's Cards Connect Program sends out homemade cards seasonally to over 500 older adults across Minnesota who may be at risk of loneliness or isolation. This Valentine's Day, we need your help in making sure we have enough cards to send out to each member. Interested in making cards? It’s easy! Just fill out our online form by clicking on the “I Want To Help!” button, then click “continue” to be directed to the sign-up form.

    Once you’ve signed up, you’ll receive an email with all the details, including where to send your Valentine’s Day cards. Please note: all cards must be received by Friday, February 2nd!

    By signing up for our Cards Connect program, you’re not committing to send cards year-round. We’ll simply send you a reminder email each quarter when we’re getting ready to send out cards—you can decide whether or not to participate each time!

    We can’t wait to share your heartfelt creations with older adults across Minnesota who could use a little extra love this Valentine’s Day.
