VISIONS invites you and your family to join Aoife and Nuala in sending Valentine's Day cards to older adults with visual impairments living in Staten Island!
Here's all you have to do:
STEP 1
Grab some of your favorite construction paper.
STEP 2
Fold your card in half, or, cut out a heart shape.
STEP 3
Write your message in BIG, BOLD print for easy reading.
STEP 4
Decorate your card with stickers, glitter, and/or paper doilies.
STEP 5
Sign your name along with your age, and send it to us.
When writing your message, you can simply say “Happy Valentine’s Day,” write a poem, or send another personal greeting. Remember, many older adults experience vision loss as they age. The bigger and clearer you write, the more likely they can enjoy your message.
Our goal is to collect 350 cards that will be delivered to nursing homes on behalf of VISIONS, and Nuala & Aoife this Valentine’s Day!
Drop Off or Mail Your Card Before February 12th, to:
Holly Bonner, Staten Island Borough Coordinator
VISIONS/Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired
730 Bement Avenue, Staten Island, NY 10310
Contact-free drop off will be available in a tote box by the front door
If you have any questions, please e-mail Holly Bonner at hbonner@visionsvcb.org
