Remember how much fun it was to receive Valentine's Day cards from your friends in elementary school? With the help of our community, we hope to recreate that special feeling for the hospice patients who receive meals through the Dinners with Love program. We are including handmade cards in our meal deliveries during the week of February 12. Call it Dinners with EXTRA Love!

Send a Valentine's Day card to a hospice patient in Vermont by making a gift to Dinners with Love. For every $10 you donate during the month of January, we will send a handmade Valentine's Day card to a hospice patient on your behalf. All proceeds will benefit the Dinners with Love program.

Then on Sunday, January 28, 1:00-4:00 p.m., join us downstairs at the Brandon Town Hall for an afternoon of crafting the cards. We will provide all of the paper, glue, glitter, stickers, and doilies your heart can imagine. You just need to supply your creativity! Stay for the whole time, or pop in for 10 minutes. We welcome and encourage you to bring your children. Light refreshments donated by local businesses will be served, including cookies from Quality Bake Shop.
