HIGHWOOD — To show some love to many older adults who have been secluded from their loved ones for nearly a year, State Senator Julie Morrison (D-Lake Forest) is collecting cards to give to people living in long-term care facilities.
“Sending someone who has been secluded for so long a card could give them a boost of joy and happiness they need right now,” Morrison said. “Please help us deliver smiles.”
Senator Morrison will collect store-bought or hand-made cards at her district office from now until Feb. 10. The cards will then be donated to a number of long-term care facilities across the district she represents.
People wishing to participate can drop off cards at an outside collection box or mail them to the following address:
Senator Julie Morrison
43 Highwood Avenue
Highwood, IL 60040
For those choosing to deliver cards in person, Senator Morrison reminds everyone to maintain social distancing and to wear a mask if entering the building.
