Senior Nomination Program
Sending Sunshine’s Senior Nomination Program allows anyone to nominate a senior they know to receive cards from us!
Each month our team will review the nominations and choose some to include on our website. Then, anyone from around the world can read about each nominated senior and send a card to one or more of their choice. The cards are sent to the nominator's address, who will collect the cards and deliver them to the senior they nominated!

June Letter Requests
Read about each nominated senior and decide which senior(s) you’d like to send a card to. Cards should be sent by June 30th, 2026. We post new seniors who want cards from you at the beginning of each month.
Happy writing!​​
Marjory
Language(s): English
A message from Marjory’s granddaughter: My grandmother will be 90 years old this year and has raised her children, grandchildren and even some of her great grandchildren. Unfortunately, most of them have busy lives of their own and moved away so she is a very lonely woman who has developed dementia. The one thing that she looks forward to daily is getting mail. So, I am trying to help lift her spirits and give her something to look forward to. She is a widow and retired from the Police Dept as a dispatcher as well as the Post & Courier as a switchboard operator. She is a devout Christian and loves children and animals.
