In February, the Go 4 It: Send Some Love event, hosted by WDIV Local 4, brought together community members to create heartfelt, handwritten cards and letters for seniors, active military members, and foster children.

One recipient, Patricia Allen, a senior recovering from surgery, shared how much the thoughtful messages meant during her recovery. Regina McIver also expressed her appreciation, noting how special it felt to receive a handwritten card in today’s digital age, a reminder of the warmth and connection behind a personal note.
