✍️ Card Writing Resources

Learn how to write meaningful, inclusive, and uplifting messages.

Handwritten cards can be small acts with a big impact. When writing your message, keep these tips in mind:

  • Start with a warm greeting: Use inclusive, friendly openers like "Hello there," "Dear Friend," or "Hi, Just for You."

  • Offer encouragement: Use words that lift, like “You are not alone,” “You matter,” or “You’ve got this.”

  • Keep it general and heartfelt: Since we don’t always know the recipient’s story, avoid personal assumptions. Focus on hope, strength, and kindness.

  • Add a personal touch: A favorite quote, a simple drawing, or a few words about what kindness means to you can add connection.

  • End on a positive note: Sign off with phrases like “With warmth,” “Sending light,” or “Wishing you peace.”
