Middle School Teachers!

Empower Your Students to Lead With Bold Kindness.

The My Dear Friend Middle School Program is a meaningful service opportunity for your students to write My Dear Friend cards together—and maybe even your whole school, too!

Your students will:

Brighten the lives of local seniors in care.

Let's Get Started
Three elderly women celebrating Christmas with greeting cards and gifts. The woman in the foreground has short gray hair, glasses, and is holding a handmade Christmas card that says "Merry Christmas." The woman in the background is reading a greeting card at a decorated table, and the woman on the left is holding flowers and a card that reads "My Dear Friend."

This was a meaningful opportunity for students to practice their writing and give back.
