My Dear Friend x GlamourGals Mission
KEEPING SENIORS FEELING LOVED IS AT THE HEART OF WHAT WE DO.
In March 2020, we (temporarily) paused our signature in-person program serving teens and seniors. At the same time, demand for our service skyrocketed. Within days we pivoted and mobilized our teen volunteers and greater community to reach isolated seniors in care.
We created My Dear Friend.
You are invited to write kind messages, beginning with, you guessed it, “My Dear Friend”, and help mail them to seniors in care.
Since we started 150,000 cards have reached isolated seniors in 50 states.
The beauty of My Dear Friend.
Anyone, anywhere can write. Throughout the year we provide resources and inspiration. Stay updated. Join our enews.
WE DISCOVERED SOMETHING
When writing together, we build a stronger community.
We created card writing kits that provide everything you need to write and make a meaningful local impact. Each kit contains the materials to reach 50 seniors in your state and help spread awareness about our mission to end elder isolation. The funding supports our teen volunteer chapters who provide in-person visits to seniors in care across the country!
