The Why & How of The Project:

Technology, along with social media, has made it easy to communicate with pretty much anyone. Just type, push send, and a message is instantly sent with little effort. It’s so easy that it has become just another task we forget to do. We find ourselves saying, “Oh I should say hi to so-and-so” or “I need to see how so-and-so is doing,” but then life happens and days pass, and it feels like that chance to say something is long gone.

Gone are the days of sending a hand-written card in the mail, unless (maybe) it’s a special occasion or holiday. But every day brings each of us our own accomplishments and struggles, celebrations or heartache. No matter the circumstance, it’s time to bring a smile to someone’s face…the good, ol’ fashioned way! Let’s bring back the days when bills and ads weren’t the only thing waiting in our mailbox.

The Gift of Gab Project hopes to inspire others to take a moment to write a hand-written note to someone you know who perhaps needs some encouragement, motivation, or just needs to know you are thinking about them. Once they’ve received the much-needed love from you, they can pass some of their own love on to someone else. It’s like paying it forward, via snail mail! All you need to do is write a few simple words on a card, stick a stamp on the envelope, and drop it in the mailbox!

Trust us! Once you send a card, you will want to keep on spreading the love. {And we know you have a lot of love to spread!} Make a personal promise to yourself {and The Gift of Gab Project if you need some more accountability} to send at least one card by the 24^th of each month. You’re guaranteed to make someone’s day!
