Write Letters to Isolated Seniors
Loneliness is one of the biggest quality-of-life issues for seniors in long-term care, and a handwritten letter can be a genuine highlight of someone week. Volunteers sign up online, get mailing information for a facility, and write as many or as few letters as they want on their own schedule. It costs nothing but a stamp and a few minutes, and it works the same whether you live down the street or across the world.

“Loved this one — the organizer had everything set up before we arrived and explained exactly what we'd be doing. It ran about 30 minutes long, which caught a few of us off guard, so plan for that. Would definitely come back.”
💡 Bring closed-toe shoes and a water bottle — it gets warm.
