Ellen's Updates
Greetings volunteers and hope you are enjoying the beginning of the autumn season. A few items of interest:
~ We have many new volunteers from countries around the globe who are concerned that it will take a long time for their letters to reach our seniors. We understand that you have no control over the postal system and that delays are quite common during the pandemic. Know that whenever your correspondence arrives, it will be appreciated and it's especially exciting for our seniors to receive a thoughtful letter from a far-away land!
~ A spreadsheet challenge: if you are planning to write to seniors in the US this cycle...SCROLL DOWN! States at the top of our alphabetic list are always full but states towards the middle and bottom of the sign-up page seem to be neglected. This cycle, let's all focus on sharing some joy with the seniors who reside in facilities in the states toward the middle and bottom of the spreadsheet!
~ Finally, a BIG birthday announcement: Mary C. is turning 95 years young on October 18th! Please sign up on our Canada page to send her congratulations, good wishes, and love. Mary's address has been provided by her daughter Colleen B., a very active long-time LAI volunteer.
Feel free to get in touch with any questions, interesting ideas or just to say hi: lai.volunteer.rep@gmail.com
THANK YOU for being a part of the LAI community!
