During this unprecedented COVID shutdown, many of our local residents - as well as our volunteers - are experiencing extreme bouts of loneliness and depression. Many have no one to uplift their spirits. As a Pen Pal, you will have the opportunity to pass along encouraging words through a card, a drawing, a personal note that will be distributed to our Meals on Wheels recipients and to several Personal Care Homes throughout the county. We are also accepting donations of note cards with which our volunteers can write their uplifting and motivational words.
