Send a Birthday card to Hallee
Last year when Hallee Sorenson turned 18 no one came to her Birthday party. Not a single person. She was heart broken.
Hallee’s cousin, Rebecca Prefontaine, did what all good cousins would do….wrestled all those who were invited and left them to fend for themselves in a Jr.Kindergarten room….no, I jest. Rather she started a Facebook page asking people to make Hallee’s 19th Birthday, on July 2nd, crazy amazing by sending her a Birthday card.
Joy in the little things
You see, Hallee has autism and just loves getting mail. So the simple yet brilliant idea that cousin Rebecca has suggested, is that people send Hallee Birthday cards. Clearly she knows that a little piece of snail mail can do wonders for the heart. Don’t you just want to run out and hug both of these girls?
Snail mail charm is contagious
This idea has really taken off and as you can see so many people, from all over the world, have sent Hallee a Birthday card. The latest tally is over 30,000 cards!
Will you join me in sending Hallee a Birthday card?
Here is her address:
Hallee Sorenson
34 Wellesley Way
Bangor, Maine 04401
