Card Maker​/Designer​/Writer

Join to apply for the Card Maker/Designer/Writer role at A Bright Spot, Inc.

Sending out thousands of cards takes many hands but it also takes a lot of love. As the cards are made by volunteers at their homes each one comes in with different forms of love. Some cards are home made, some are store bought but filled in with great uplifting messages, some even come with a few stickers inside. We then take those cards and match them with the best recipient.

No personal information is shared on either end. We have high goals of everyone knowing they matter. When you are "down" whether it be lonely, far away from home or just having a hard time - a card is a simple gesture that can certainly be "A Bright Spot" in your day.

We are looking for volunteers to help us design cards (or write messages in store-bought ones) that uplift children, seniors, people with disabilities, hospice care and military. We work with numerous hospitals, assisted living facilities, military sites and other organizations across the country to send cards to remind people that they matter and that someone is thinking about them. Cards can be hand made or store bought, but must be handwritten and contain motivating, cheerful and/or uplifting messages.

Please see the guidelines on our website (Use the "Apply for this Job" box below). The website also has a variety of categories that volunteers can choose when deciding what cards to make (welcome fall/winter/spring for seniors, back to school for kids, or general support for veterans and military families, to name just a few examples). Contact us for more details or even to recommend a location or group that could use some cards of support.

Volunteers can work individually or together as a group. For group efforts:

• Event can be held at a volunteer group location (the library, for example)
• Event can be held at organization location (a company office, for example)
• Event can be held virtually

We appreciate donations, and we always need postage stamps and stickers to add to the cards and envelopes.
