FSA Seeks Handmade Cards To Give Seniors This Mother's Day

Press release from Family Service Agency of the Central Coast:

April 27, 2021

When a person goes into a care facility, they face many challenges including emotional and social isolation. Community members can help reduce some of the loneliness and isolation residents are faced with. One way is to send a card! Some ideas are: “Thinking of You” cards, Mother’s Day cards, special occasion cards or create your own cards! Most people like to receive mail, and this is a way to help brighten their day and put a smile on their face! This is a great project for community groups and for both adults and children!

We are also collecting activity items including Crossword Puzzles, Word Search Books, Adult Coloring Books and colored pencils and crayons.

Items can be mailed to:
FSA/I-You Venture, 104 Walnut Ave, #208, Santa Cruz, CA 95060,
Or dropped off at:
Santa Cruz Volunteer Center, Attn: FSA, 1740 17th Ave, Santa Cruz, CA.
(Office hours are M-TH, 10:00 am – Noon and 1:00-4:00 pm.)

Thank you for remembering our seniors and helping to put a smile on their face!
