    Letters of Light

    Bring joy and holiday cheer to nursing home residents by creating heartfelt, handmade Christmas cards! Each card you make will brighten someone’s day, spread warmth, and remind residents that they are remembered and cared for during the holiday season. No artistic experience is required — just your kindness, creativity, and festive spirit!

    Volunteer Role:

    • Make or decorate Christmas cards
    • Write uplifting messages for residents
    • Help spread holiday cheer in the community

    Impact: Your letters will bring smiles, comfort, and a sense of connection to residents who may be spending the holidays away from family. Every card is a small act of light that can make a big difference!
