We reprise our 2020 and 2021 Yale CLE Virtual Day of Service project contributing letters of love to the elderly in need of uplift and encouragement.  In 2020, we helped set a record for the nonprofit started by Jacob Cramer, '22 (Ben Franklin) -- 14,234 letters of love sent to 233 senior communities in the United States, UK, Australia and Canada. The Cleveland effort sparked national and international interest. See some of the photos of appreciative recipients, letter writers and helpers at the project's Instagram account.

This virtual project is again part of our Yale CLE Day of Service, now marking its 14th year. So, take a moment anytime in the month of May to handwrite 14 more letters of love, warmth and encouragement (large, legible writing please!), keeping away from religion, politics and personal topics, illustrate with colorful art, if you care to do so, and mail with their envelopes to

Love for Our Elders
P.O. Box 24248
Cleveland, Ohio 44124

Organized in collaboration with Yale Alumni Service Corps (YASC), join Paulo Barreiro '12 MEM, founder of Cachoeira, a local socio-environmental company, for a Yale Day of Service, virtual community vegetable garden. This session is part of an environmental and arts education program for children living in marginal neighborhoods of Serra Grande in Southern Bahia.

Come learn more about the project, find out ways to get involved, and interact with the local children who will be recycling and planting, and drawing their activities. You are also welcome to share your own community garden story or other experience.

Yale Club of Fort Worth will hold a monthlong Virtual Food Drive for Tarrant Area Food Bank, which distributes food to pantries in 13 counties. Summer is a difficult time of year for food banks. The reason? Families with children who had been receiving free or reduced-cost breakfast and/or lunch at school need to find a way to replace those meals during summer break. So they turn to their local food bank or pantry for assistance.

Every $1 you donate will provide food for 5 meals. Your support truly makes a difference in the lives of our neighbors in need. Our YCFW goal is to raise $1,000 or 5,000 meals. Our campaign will end on May 31.

To participate in YCFW's Yale Day of Service, please donate at our YCFW page.

Thanks for you support!
