Postcards of Kindness

Griffith City Council is excited to invite you to participate in our Postcards of Kindness campaign as part of Local Government Week and the We Are Griffith – We Are Positive initiative.

This project encourages children to create colourful postcards featuring uplifting, positive messages to be delivered to local nursing home residents. It’s a simple yet meaningful way to promote kindness and intergenerational connection.

How can I get involved?

Schools:

  • If you would like to get involved, contact Hannah or Tanya at Griffith City Council on 1300 176 077 or communications@griffith.nsw.gov.au 
  • We will arrange to have blank postcards delivered to your school
  • Once postcards are completed, please contact us to collect them
  • We will then deliver the postcards to nursing homes throughout Griffith

 Members of the public:

  • Pick up a blank postcard from Griffith City Library or download a printable version below
  • Write a positive message and draw a picture to brighten someone’s day
  • Return to Griffith City Library so we can deliver it to people in need of some positivity.

Example messages

Brighten someone's day by including a positive message on your postcard. Here are some examples;

"I hope today brings you lots of smiles and warm hugs!"

"You're amazing just the way you are. I'm thinking of you today!"

"I hope this little card makes your day a little brighter!"

"Sending you sunshine, rainbows and happy thoughts!"

"I don’t know you yet, but I hope you’re having a really great day!"

"You are loved, even by people you’ve never met, just like me!"

"Wishing you laughter, peace and something yummy today."

"You have a beautiful smile. I hope you use it lots today!"

"I'm sending this card to say you're special and not alone."

"I hope you feel happy and proud of all the amazing things you’ve done."

"Your heart is full of stories. Thank you for being part of our community."
