Strangers Write 125,000 Letters to Breast Cancer Patients – And You Can Join This Healing Mission Too

“I received a note from a complete stranger and it was so powerful,” says one patient. “Now I keep the letter on my nightstand and read it every night before bed to gain strength. I’m amazed at the kindness in this world.”

Founder & Author Gina L. Mulligan

There can be a lot of emotional challenges that come from fighting cancer – but according to this charity, a little letter can be a big help in overcoming those obstacles.

Girls Love Mail is a nonprofit that asks strangers to write letters of love and encouragement to breast cancer patients.

Since the charity was launched in August 2011, there have been over 125,000 letters sent to cancer patients around the world. Letter writers have ranged from fourth graders to 90-year-olds across the US, plus Canada, Japan, Germany, Korea, Brazil, UK, Ireland, Australia, Malta, Burma, and The Netherlands.

If you would like to participate in the charity’s mission, you can visit the Girls Love Mailwebsite for more details. Additionally, Mulligan has published a compilation book of the charity’s letters called “Dear Friend”, which is available on Amazon.
