CHEERFUL CARDS for Seniors: Year-Round in Riverside/San Bernardino Counties
Family Service Association (FSA) appreciates Cheerful Cards with artwork, designs or crafty graphics. OK to use stickers, decals or other craft supplies that adequately stick to the card. (Please NO glitter or confetti.) Adults, teens or children can make the cards. We are looking for about 3,000 cards.
Cards may have a simple greeting (such as Have a Great Day, Thinking of You, A Smile from My House to Yours, You’re Amazing, Wishing You a Sunny Day, etc.) or a philosophical quotation. These are NOT Get Well cards. They are to cheer up older seniors who may be even more isolated during COVID-19.
Size: Any size card is good that is not larger than an 8½" X 11"sheet of paper. (2 cards or 4 postcard-size cards made from one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet is great.) No envelope is required.
Signing cards: If you like, you may sign your FIRST NAME or the name of your GROUP but do NOT include personal information about yourself (address, etc.)
Other items: We also have Spanish-speaking clients, so bilingual cards may be made. Bookmarks and Crossword/Sudoku magazines are also welcomed.
Supplies: Any items around your house may be used. We do NOT have a budget for this project nor for shipping. We appreciate your time and generosity and can give you a donation receipt if needed for supplies and shipment.
If you are not in Riverside or San Bernardino counties, you would need to send your cards to the FSA Volunteer Director via USPS, FedEx or UPS at your cost. Send to Kathy, Vol. Mgr., Family Service Assn., Ste. 211, Moreno Valley, CA 92557.
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
