Thinking of You Cards
Our participants can’t wait to hear from you!
The quarantine and stay-at-home orders have been tough for all of us, but for many individuals with intellectual and developmental differences, this time is especially hard and isolating. Programs like the ones we offer, are the only time that many of these individuals interact with others. A card from you would mean the world.
Each month we send 260 activity packets to our day program individuals and would love to include your “thinking of you” cards to brighten their day. These cards will be included in each month’s activity packets. These cards can be handmade, store-bought, designed online and printed – wherever your creativity takes you! No matter what you do, your card will be appreciated more than you know!
We know it can be hard to know what to write in a card – messages can be as simple as:
Cards are needed each month
Cards can be mailed to or dropped off at:
1050 North Davis Street
Jacksonville, FL 32209
Feel free to post your cards in the Facebook Event Page or Sparc Group.
