Write Encouragement Notes (from home)
Any day this week · Flexible · 1 hour
Handwrite short notes that get tucked into weekly meal deliveries for homebound older adults across Allegheny County.
What to expect
- What to wear
- Whatever you're already wearing.
- Activity level
- Seated, at home.
- Group size
- Individual.
- Who else is there
- Nobody — a coordinator emails you prompts and a mailing label.
- Accessibility
- Fully remote. Typed notes accepted in place of handwriting.
The vibe
Solo and low-pressure. Do it at your kitchen table with a podcast on.
Your point of contact
Tomas Vega, Volunteer Coordinator
A person, not a shared inbox. Reachable before the shift.
Pro tips from past volunteers (1)
- Keep notes to four or five lines — they get read aloud by drivers.
