Write Christmas greetings to senior citizens in Ingolstadt

Human exchange is very dear to us and we want to make our seniors* a joy at Christmas time and show that they are thought of.

Help us to spread some attention and cordiality and participate in our letter action. The senior citizens in the senior center "Heilig-Geist-Spital " are looking forward to your Christmas greetings!

We are grateful for every handmade Christmas card, for every poem and every short text - simply everything that makes our seniors time a little more varied and shows that we think of them.

How many pictures / cards / letters you paint or write, is entirely up to you. We are happy about every single one.

Let your creativity run wild!

If you want to write cards, you are welcome to simply create short greeting cards e.g. with a beautiful poem/song text and a dear greeting "I think of you/stay healthy/love greetings from Ingolstadt/Neckarsulm" etc. or you can - if you like - tell about yourself and your everyday life/a holiday/a story. The residents* are also happy about various new insights into other lives. 

Put everything in an envelope and send it to us, so we can forward it to our residents . Send us a quick note (via the "Send Message" button) and we'll let you know our address!

You will need some time, creativity and a desire to help other people.

You will also need an envelope and a stamp to send the Christmas greetings.

This project is not about developing a pen-pal relationship. So it’s possible that you won’t receive a reply to your letter. But your joy and thoughtfulness will definitely be appreciated!

Please note that letters must be mailed by December 17, 2026, at the latest, so they arrive in time for Christmas!
