Have you ever received a love letter?

 

During a time when Hannah Brencher was struggling to pay off student loans, and was unsure of her place in this world. She began writing love letters to leave all over New York City. Hannah went on to create a blog, there she made a promise to send a lover letter to anyone who emailed her an address, according to More Love Letters.

 

This simple idea has expanded, now More Love Letters is bigger than ever! More Love Letters has a couple of ways you can get involved right now! You can be a letter writer. If you check out their website here: http://www.moreloveletters.com/ you can learn about current love letter requests. Love letter requests are written by people who believe that a love one could really need some love letters. The love letter receivers may be going through a hard time. You can also leave a love letter. It’s pretty simple, you create a love letter, and you leave it for some anonymous person. You can leave it at a table in the library, taped on a random person’s dorm door; you can leave it any where! Lastly, you can become a letter leader, this where you start either Campus Cursive or Kids Cursive.

 

Campus Cursive is a club that students can start at their colleges. Students work to spread love letters all over campus. More Love Letters recommends students spread awareness about their organization to get other students involved. Campus Cursive recommends holding a letter writing a party, and participating in the 12 Days of Love Letter Writing.

 

More Love Letters also has a program called Kids Cursive. Kids’ Cursive is a organization that brings younger kids together to write cards for Children for Hospitalized Kids, according to More Love Letters.

 

Do you know someone that could really use some love letters? You can submit that person to receive them here: http://www.moreloveletters.com/requestaletter/

 

More Love Letters has been featured on Oprah, Glamour, BBC World News, TED, The Guardian, The Chicago Tribune, and Cosmopolitan.

 

This amazing idea has started an incredibly movement, that relies on you! Get involved today!

I am a sophmore at Western Michigan University. I'm double majoring in political science and enviromental studies, and double minoring in gender and women's studies and journalism.I love's reading the newspaper, I'm a self-proclaimed news junkie. I also love volunteering, spending time with my friends. In my rare free time I love to watch movies and televison shows a season at a time. I comedies, espically British comedies, the dryer the better! I also love spending time out side, whether it's camping, hiking, or just enjoying our world's natural beauty.My future plans include saving the earth from climate change and ensuring women's equality, well those are my long time goals anyway. After college I plan to work as a legislative aid or a political reporter. I currently serve as Her Campus WMU's senator in the Western Student Association. I also work as a reporter at my home town newspaper, The South County News.To my friends I'm known as the poltical coffee addicted shoeaholic feminist, but you can call me Morgan. Follow me on Twitter: @macfarlane_mOr email me: morgan.k.macfarlane@wmich.edu

I always find self-written bios to be kind of awkward, but throwing modesty out the window, here goes nothing: Hi, my birth name is Sara but I feel as though most of Kalamazoo knows me as Hollywood, which has been my nickname for several years now. The nickname was given to me when I played rugby for WMU, and it just stuck. This is a chance to set aside my ultra ego, and dive into the opinions and thoughts of Sara rather than the outrageous, unbelievable adventures of Hollywood. A little about me: I am studying Communication Studies and Nonprofit Leadership at Western Michigan. I think I'm almost done, but with college, who actually knows. My ultimate goal would be to have my own column in a women's health magazine that talks about nutrition, exercise, and maintaining a positive outlook on life as a woman. But if that doesn't pan out, I figure I would own my own hotdog stand, so I got options. Unlike most people, I love running and exercising. A few years back I had something devastating happen to me, and the way that I found happiness again was through a healthy diet, learning about nutrition, and working out. I completed two triathlons this summer, and in one of them I placed in the top 10 for the 29 and below age group. Now that I have conquered the triathlon, I don't know what's next off my bucket list that I want to conquer. (May be Brazil??) I am not a 'down-to-earth' person, rather, I like a busy life and I like being involved whether it be getting involved in volunteering or just trolling around Kalamazoo with my friends. I'm always on the go and I like it that way. But as of now, I'm just a twenty-something girl with a zest for adventure with an empty wallet who is making due with exploring all what Kalamazoo has to offer. If you see me out, I'll be the girl with red shoes and a mustache tattooed on her finger. I usually refer to myself as not the girl next door, but the girl two doors down; I have a little more life lessons under my belt and a different outlook on life. http://theblacksheeponline.com/author/sara-czarnecki twitter: @sarasuzieczar
