Brighten A Day Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to combating isolation and spreading joy. Our mission is to uplift spirits and brighten lives by delivering cards, letters, gifts, conversations, video messages, devices, care packages, and more. We have no paid employees and are completely volunteer-run.

Our organization works with retirement homes, hospitals, orphanages, and other facilities to spread cheer to those in need. To date, we’ve brought smiles to tens of thousands of people across the world and in all 50 states, and continue to reach more. Our work has been recognized in both national and international media.

You can brighten someone’s day in just a few minutes. Please consider contributing to our mission by volunteering or donating. If you are a hospital, retirement home, or other facility that would like to work with us to spread cheer to your residents or patients, please reach out here. Feel free to reach out with comments or questions here.
