In Illinois’ 47th District, Senator Neil Anderson has launched his annual “Valentines for Seniors” Card Drive, lasting until February 7, 2025. The initiative invites community members to create handmade Valentine’s Day cards for seniors in nursing homes and long-term care facilities, aiming to lessen their loneliness during the holiday. Participants, including students, scout troops, and church groups, can deliver their cards to the Senator’s office in Aledo or mail them. For more details, the public is encouraged to email Abbey Peterson or call the district office. This endeavor highlights the community’s commitment to showing love and support to its elderly members.
For more information on the program, contact Abbey Peterson at [email protected] or call Senator Anderson’s District Office at 309-230-7584.
