Nancy's good friend teaches card making classes! When Nancy told them that she is a volunteer for LAI, they donated these stunning cards. Thank you for sharing this great tip & lovely cards

Happy Sunday, Shreya!

I hope you had an amazing week! We've been getting everything ready to celebrate our second birthday. Can you believe that two years ago, on April 6th, Saffron and I sent our first letter? We are so excited to mark this milestone with all of you at our virtual birthday bash next Saturday at 5pm EST - you can RSVP here. We've got some incredible stories to share and the announcement of a huge special project that will change how you write letters!

In honor of our 2nd birthday on April 6, we'll be celebrating Wonderful Wednesday.

We've got big plans for our third year - we'd like to help the seniors we write to start writing letters themselves, expand the stamp fund to the general volunteer base and so much more!

If you would like to support us financially, please donate what you can. Every dollar will go into funding these new programs and finding more ways to serve our seniors.

This week, we have added 16 brand-new facilities to the spreadsheet! We are so thrilled that we can serve more seniors both in the US and Canada.

Let's give them a very warm welcome, and spread a little cheer to our new friends.

I know we can keep up this amazing momentum!

Sugar & Kiki Letter Writing Bingo

Sugar & Kiki is a fantastic letter-writing subscription service that one of our volunteers runs!

This April, they are selling a Snail Mail Bingo package featuring 5 beautiful postcards, stamps, a bingo card, and admission to a trivia & postcard writing social. For every package sold, Sugar & Kiki will donate $5 to Letters Against Isolation!

Verification Project Feedback!

As you might remember, last month, a group of volunteers got together to verify the addresses, needs and contact information for every place we write to. We got to hear from all the activities directors at the homes we serve through that process!

Volunteer Coordinator, Paula Berman, put their feedback, tips, and stories together into this excellent blog post. It is a must-read!

LAI's BIG BIRTHDAY BASH is just around the corner! We are so excited to celebrate all of the terrific things we've achieved together in our second year of running during our Zoom party on April 9 from 5 - 6:30 EST!

I cannot believe that we are celebrating two years, time has flown! Thank you for being a significant part of that incredible journey. We could not have achieved what we have without you.

Have fun writing,

Saffron and Shreya
