To the somebodies of our world,
You are loved. You are beautiful.
You are worthy of everything you desire, even when our crazy culture has so many ways to convince you you're not.
In all your struggles, you are NEVER alone.
Your dreams are worth pursuing,
so be brave and take the first step towards that one things that you've always wanted to do.
Life is too short to not start living your dreams.
Taking a risk is terrifying I know.
Here's a dose of courage to take the leap.
You can do it!
With so much love from my heart to yours ♡

ONCE UPON A TIME
In October 2010, Hannah Brencher began writing & leaving love letters all over New York City to ward off the loneliness and depression that ambushed her after graduating from college. Knee-deep in student loans and desperate to know her “place in this world,” Brencher’s letter writing efforts grew a platform on her blog after she made a promise to the internet: If you emailed her a snail mail address, she would write you a love letter. No questions asked.
One year and 400 love letters later, The World Needs More Love Letters was born. Founded in September 2011, More Love Letters is a community of over 20,000 passionate individuals from across 49 different countries who take to leaving love letters all over their communities and mailing letters to strangers in need. More Love Letters also runs a Campus Cursive Branch for college students & a Kids’ Cursive Branch for children.
OUR MISSION
The World Needs More Love Letters is an organization lifting, empowering, and mobilizing individuals through tangible acts of love.
OUR LOVE LETTER TO YOU
The world doesn’t need another website. It doesn’t need another app or a network.
What it needs is really basic. Simple. Bare-boned.& often forgotten in the race to get followers, likes & status.
LOVE. Pure, old-fashioned, never goes out of style Love. Ridiculous, oozing, cannot pack this thang into 140-characters kind of love. Fearless, bold, unstoppable love.
AND THAT’S WHERE WE COME IN, SUGAR.
We’re going to tell you that we leave love letters all over the world for others to be blessed by. We’re going to ask you to help us contribute to Love Letter Bundles for people you’ll probably never meet but psstt…. they need your words & wisdom today. We’re going to invite you to nominate someone you know for a Love Letter Bundle.
You are going to think we are a bit crazy. A tad loopy… But let’s be honest, you’ve been looking for a website that leaks love all this time.
FAIR WARNING, WE COULD CARE LESS ABOUT LOVE LETTERS.
We’re only interested in you. The cracked parts of your own story & how you can use them to lift someone else. It’s about how each of us can morph our lives into love letters… lamps… lanterns… to light the paths of others who needs kindness and love today.
It’s official. Now, more than ever, the world needs more love letters. So get involved. Check out the current letter requests. Join our subscriber list to never miss a beat.
Your cursive means the world to us.
WITH CROSSED t’s & DOTTED i’s.
The More Love Letters Team
Basically, you leave an anonymous note, just a quick power letter, with a wish that it will brighten someone's day. Found love letters are posted, although not all, but it is inspiring when you read someone's story of how much a little letter had helped. It really -- it just makes you feel good about the world and life in general. I had already left a note, and planning to do more and as regular as possible, and hopefully, I can read my love letters from the website.
