Opportunity Details
Write Letters of Love to Seniors
The Town of Orangetown is collecting letters of love for Valentine's Day for its local senior citizens as part of its Operation: Love Our Senior Citizens project! Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to draw and write cards (either purchased as the store or handmade) for older neighbors who could use an extra smile. Volunteers can drop off their cards in the box marked "Operation: Love Our Senior Citizens" at Town Hall. All cards will be collected by Tuesday, February 9 and distributed later that week.
This self-directed opportunity is perfect for families, students, employee teams, and religious groups.
