Mission Statement

Everyone deserves A Bright Spot in their day! Bright Spot sends a card (and for kids-stickers) to anyone who could use A Bright Spot in their day. Simple as that. A surprise piece of mail with uplifting messages always brightens a day! Whether it be a child in the hospital, a senior in assisted living, military members away from home or someone just having a bad year; We are here to remind them someone cares. Mental health starts with knowing you matter to someone and getting a card reminds them they are loved.

Description

Sending out thousands of cards takes many hands but it also takes a lot of love. As the cards are made by volunteers at their homes each one comes in with different forms of love. Some cards are home made, some are store bought but filled in with great uplifting messages, some even come with a few stickers inside. We then take those cards and match them with the best recipient. No personal information is shared on either end. We have high goals of everyone knowing they matter. When you are "down" whether it be lonely, far away from home or just having a hard time- A card is a simple gesture that can certainly be "A Bright Spot" in your day.
