A BRIGHT SPOT

Everyone deserves A Bright Spot in the day!

Who doesn’t like surprise mail? A Bright Spot sends uplifting messages to anyone who could use a kind letter, note, or card.

Our specific purpose of this corporation is to provide joy and happiness to children and adults in need of support. (Veterans, Seniors, Military,Children in the Hospital, Cancer centers, etc) Primarily, this is in the form of letters, stickers, and cards. These will be mailed to those in need or hand-delivered to caretakers.

Simple as that.

Whatever the need for A Bright Spot, we’ll be there to brighten the day with a card or uplifting note. We send free cards to individuals, caregivers, hospitalized children and seniors, deployed service members, or anyone who needs a reminder that they are loved and appreciated.

Our mission is to make others feel seen, heard, appreciated, supported, and loved. We do this through supportive cards and notes. Who doesn’t like a surprise “Bright Spot in their day?”

The findings of the recent experiments, carried out by the Brighton-based independent laboratory Mindlab, confirmed that greeting cards increase the sense of well-being.

Why we started A Bright Spot

“Can I take your coat?” employees would ask my grandmother as she walked into a card store. A card store, not a fancy restaurant or a spa; but a card store! They knew she would be there for hours picking cards for everyone she knew, not just for holidays or birthdays, but for bad days, sad days, and days she thought we needed a lift. She wanted to brighten people’s spirits; to let everyone she touched know they were loved. They did matter.

I was never forgotten by her and those cards were a Bright Spot in my day. I knew someone was out there cheering for me; reminding me it was ok not to be okay. I was still loved. I made a difference.

A Bright Spot provides that moment of care to seniors, military personnel far from home, children in foster placement, refugee children, children in the hospital, and anyone else needing a lift. For one moment of the day, they can forget everything and stop, pause, and know they are loved and that they do matter.

Small gestures make a significant impact. That is why I started A Bright Spot. To make a difference, one life at a time.

Donations will be received to procure stamps, envelopes, and other expenses associated with providing A Bright Spot to someone in their day.
