Craft for a Cause: Make a holiday card for a senior

The Sandy Library is looking for volunteers to help us make non-religious holiday cards with kind messages to share with seniors in the local community. Social distancing is important for public health right now, but this leaves some seniors feeling lonesome and isolated. Help us show they are loved and supported this holiday season by making a holiday card to brighten their day. 

Instructions

Create a handmade card with a cheerful message for a local senior. General “Thinking of You” cards work best since we don’t have any personal information on the card recipient. There is a random assortment of craft supplies enclosed in the kit for you to use, along with two blank cards. You will need your own markers or crayons and glue or glue stick. You are welcome to design the cards any way you like and use your own supplies if desired.

Pick up

Pick up your card kit at the library during curbside hours Monday - Saturday 10:00 am - 4:00 pm or Sunday 12:00 pm - 4:00. Pull into one of our curbside parking spots and call 503-668-5537 and let us know you would like a card kit.

Drop Off

Return your cards to the library during curbside hours Monday - Saturday 10:00 am - 4:00 pm or Sunday 12:00 pm - 4:00.
