The Problem
Kaitlyn Chana is the Founder and President of Love Letters: Random Cards of Kindness, Inc. (www.LoveLettersCares.com) which is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit national organization whose mission is to create positive and inspirational homemade cards for children with life-threatening illnesses. Each card is unique because it is created by hand using stamps, stickers, scrapbook paper and art supplies. Inside each card a positive uplifting inspirational message such as “Sending You A Great Big Hug”, “You Shine Like A Star”, or “Believe In Yourself” is written to give children faith, courage and the will to survive. Bringing smiles to children’s faces is Kaitlyn's mission. Once the cards are created, she hand delivers some of the cards to children going through the difficult times of treatments and surgeries in hospitals and organizations such as Give Kids the World and the Ronald McDonald house. Other cards are sent with love through the mail to children with life-threatening illnesses to lift their spirits. Her motto is: Sick children need more than medicine; they need love and support from their families, friends and Love Letters “Pen Pals.” To date, her organization has impacted over 10,000 children and their families by creating homemade cards.
