‘Letters of Love’ campaign asks community to send mail to seniors

letters of lovePeople across the North Country are experiencing higher levels of isolation and loneliness during the pandemic. This is a real challenge for all of us, but particularly for our family and friends who reside in nursing homes.
Therefore, North Country Center for Independence (NCCI) is partnering with Fesette Realty, organizations, and community members to share handmade letters and cards to nursing home residents across CLINTON, ESSEX and FRANKLIN counties.
They have set a goal to collect 1,500 letters by March 5.

    Great project ❤️ It’s easy for younger people to forget that seniors are, among many other cool things, encyclopedias of excellent knowledge. You’d be super surprised what great friends you’ll make – hope that people do this!
