Kids and families: join our Homebound but Not Alone campaign!



Let your older neighbors who are self-isolating know you are thinking about them during this time of crisis by creating a cheerful card to be mailed to our clients.
Participating is easy! Follow these simple instructions:
Step 1 – make a beautiful heartfelt card using our instructions below
Step 2 – put it in an UNSEALED envelope
Step 3 – add postage
Step 4 – drop off or mail to the Heights and Hills main office, 81 Willoughby Street, Suite 302 (corner of Lawrence St), Brooklyn 11201. If mailing cards please leave them unsealed and mail in a larger envelope. We will address and mail to our clients.
Cards can be dropped off Monday through Saturday 9am to 5pm with security in the building lobby.
