More About Event

"Creating Hope" is a volunteer opportunity aimed at establishing a safe, non-judgemental space to write personalized messages of hope for those who are going through a tough time. 

Letters Against Depression has a simple, but robust mission: to help people afflicted with depression, anxiety, and other mental illnesses. They accomplish this by hand-writing letters of Hope and Support, spreading the message that "You are not alone", and that "You matter" and mailing them world-wide.  They have partnered with Peer Support Space, Inc. to bring this in-person opportunity to come together with other loving community members as volunteers go through a database of individuals that have requested a little bit of hope. They can read through their age, location, and what they are going through in order to write them a personalized message of hope. You can write a letter or you can write a quote or draw a picture on a notecard and/or bookmark to be mailed with letters. Letters Against Depression will then match each note to the right person to ensure that we spread hope to those who need it most.
