Our Story
A Simple Act of Kindness, A Growing Movement of Joy
It All Started With a Card...
Cheerful Cards began with one high school student and a heartfelt idea: to bring joy to seniors through handmade greeting cards. After visiting her own grandmother in an assisted living facility, she saw how small gestures could make a big impact.
​
What started as a holiday craft project turned into a full-blown mission of kindness—spreading smiles, warmth, and connection to elderly residents in care homes across the country, and even as far as Australia and Italy.
Why We Do It
Our mission is simple: to bring comfort and connection to seniors through the power of a greeting card. Every card is made with love, creativity, and care—and each one reminds someone that they are seen, valued, and not alone.
​
We believe that joy should have no age limit and that a handwritten message can be a powerful source of light in someone’s day.
Help Us Spread the Joy
Whether you're a student looking to get involved, a senior home in need of cards, or just someone who believes in kindness—we’d love to hear from you.
