Hearts on Mind Letter Writing Challenge

hands writing letter

Our Sergeant at Arms, Winfried Cooper, is starting a challenge to help out the post office and raise the spirits of our friends and family. He encourages everyone to participle. We’ll let him explain it:

Today, May 1, is mental health awareness month. So I’m asking you all to join in my “Hearts on Mind Challenge”. All you do is write an uplifting letter to a friend or family member during these dark days, stamp it and send it out.

All of you in my life helps to keep me going, but so many are not fortunate. So I’m sending out 11 letters (because that number matches my precinct, #11. lol)

Take care all!

You can message Winfried on facebook. He’d love to know if you’re going to take part in his challenge.
