"Sending Love" Cards for those that may be alone over Christmas
Hi everyone,
Sending Love is about people and communities coming together to make a festive gesture towards another person who may experience loneliness over Christmas. It is one person putting love and thought into a card to pass a smile and a sense of feeling remembered and loved onto another person. It is not an organization, or a charity; Sending Love is a platform and vehicle to enable sending love from one individual to another. It is an avenue to teach communities and children about the power of a simple act of kindness, and the impact this can have on the recipient. It is also about raising awareness in communities across the country of what may be behind closed doors, the sad reality of the loneliness that exists around us all, and that each and every one of us are empowered and have the capacity to be part changing that.
Just a friendly reminder that Christmas is fast approaching and we will be collecting cards again this year for those who may be alone over Christmas.
Drop boxes will be set up to collect your cards ( places to be advised).
Last year over 900 cards were collected in the Wairarapa and distributed to local Rest homes, Hospitals etc

Thank you in advance
