Mothers Day Cards - Bates

Above is just one of the many photographs of the children from Bates Elementary School in Dexter, Michigan. The second graders at Bates poured out their hearts and souls to make absolutely BEAUTIFUL Mother’s Day Cards for our local seniors!

What a wonderful job they did. Go here to view the awesome cards. I delivered 51 Cards to The Northfield Place Nursing Home in Whitmore Lake on May 12th the Friday prior to Mother’s Day. The director there said the staff would give them out on Sunday, Mother’s Day! The residents were so excited to receive them!!! One resident said, “Are we allowed to keep them”? I said of course, the children made them just for you! The following photos were taken of 3 residents at Northfield Place who received their cards early so that we could post them on our web for the event.

I delivered the remainder of the cards to the Dexter Senior Center. The director there said that they would place them along with their Meals-On-Wheels program so the homebound folks would receive them for Mother’s Day! They were thrilled to receive the cards from the children. Click here to view the photos taken of folks from the Dexter Senior Center receiving the cards.

“Be Kind to Humankind Week” would like to give a BIG THANK YOU to the children and teachers who made this possible, and to the entire staff at Bates Elementary who assisted in making this event possible!!! THANK YOU AGAIN for your Kind Acts in Action!

    What glorious photos! The children’s cards made those seniors so happy. But it wouldn’t have happened without you. Great job, Lorraine!
