Every year, the library participates in an act-of-kindness project. We’re excited to announce this year’s project!
This holiday season, we have set a goal to deliver holiday and greeting cards to residents of two local nursing homes. Spreading kindness is contagious! Make cards for two local nursing homes – the Masonic Homes of Kentucky Shelbyville Campus and Crestview – to boost resident’s happiness by decorating handmade cards. Who doesn’t love receiving a card just because?
We’re asking for your help. Between the two nursing homes, we are in need of more than 250 cards. We want each resident of the homes to get a card from someone in the community.
This project is open to all ages: children, young adults, and adults.
All supplies will be provided by the Library.
We’re looking forward to seeing what you create!
No registration is necessary.
