The past prototypes had thematic hand colored line drawings and in the recent series, I experimented using origami paper to create unique cards. All cards have hand written personal messages.

OnLok Senior Food Services and Computer Center

Bi-monthly Saturday volunteer services at OnLok Senior center giving tech support to seniors at the computer center, and helping out with serving freshly cooked hot foods for in-house dining, and bagging foods for take out meals.

We hope to alleviate social isolation among seniors through sending handwritten letters to offer words of comfort and care for seniors. In the process, we collected and documented 52 weekly letters compiled into a publication to be given to select senior centers here in San Francisco.
