“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word... all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” - Leo Buscaglia

Over 60% of care home residents experience loneliness and between 30-40% of nursing home residents suffer from depression. (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12102736/)

You can make a difference to end that loneliness. Will you send a card today?

Katrina remarked that her staff thoroughly enjoyed this volunteer opportunity, and they’ll be sure to do this again!

Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward.” - Princess Diana 💗

Through our handwritten cards, our volunteers help spread kindness and create meaningful connections with nursing home residents. 💌🌸

A few thoughtful words can brighten someone’s day, spark a smile, and show someone they’re cared for.

We’re so grateful for everyone who joins us in making small acts of kindness matter! Together, we can continue to spread joy. One card at a time. ✨

A huge thank-you to Rob Vondrak from Los Angeles, California for sending 100 heartfelt cards to residents at Alvarado Care Center! 💌✨

Ron’s generosity and dedication are helping remind residents that they are remembered, valued, and cared for. A simple card can bring comfort, spark connection, and brighten someone’s entire day—and 100 cards means 100 opportunities to spread kindness. ❤️

👉 Will you challenge yourself to make and send 10 cards this month to one of our nursing homes of the month? ❤️

At Caring by Card, we believe that small acts of kindness can create a big impact. 💗Studies show that 61% of nursing home residents experience moderate loneliness, while 35% experience severe loneliness. This reality reminds us why our mission matters so deeply. (source: a study published through PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32396600/)

As a nonprofit organization powered by volunteers, we are dedicated to spreading kindness through handwritten cards and meaningful intergenerational connection. Every card sent to nursing home residents is more than paper: it’s a reminder that someone is thinking of them, caring for them, and cheering them on.

Through community service and giving back, we can work together to help change this statistics one card at a time. Thank you to everyone who continues to volunteer, support our mission, and help us spread kindness every single day. 💌✨

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word…” 💌

At Caring by Card, we believe that even the smallest act—like sending a handwritten card—can truly turn someone’s day around. A simple message can bring comfort, spark connection, and remind nursing home residents that they are seen, valued, and not alone. ❤️

Dylan hand made 42 absolutely beautiful cards for nursing home residents, as part of her volunteer hours for National Honor Society. Everything from the blooming spring flowers 🌸 to the whimsical butterflies 🦋 to the sweet, uplifting notes are bursts of pure sunshine. ☀️ The love and effort she poured into crafting these cards is evident. Dylan was so thrilled that her cards would reach the residents at Sandstone Heights in Utah, where the residents must have been so delighted to receive these paper hugs! 🥰

Join us in showing gratitude to Dylan and her brilliant cardmaking efforts. 👏
It’s been amazing to see our youth so involved in serving their communities this year– not to mention choosing Caring by Card to showcase their talents and efforts by uplifting the lives of nursing home residents.
