Hi! My name is Carly Klem and I am fundraising for a nonprofit organization called Letters of Love! Letters of Love creates handmade cards for children in hospitals all across the US. These cards provide emotional support and remind each child that they are not alone.

I am fundraising as a candidate for Luminary of the year, and am also the president of the Letters of Love chapter at the University of Oregon. In this role I have experienced firsthand how this organization brings people together to give back in a creative and fun environment.

The funds raised through this campaign will help Letters of Love expand its impact by supporting the existing 300 clubs and supporting onboarding over 300 new clubs nationwide. These funds will help cover costs like supplies and shipping so more cards can reach children who need them.

I truly believe in the mission of this organization and how emotional support and small acts of kindness can create lasting impact. Beyond supporting an incredible mission, this experience is also helping me build skills that I will carry into my future career within the nonprofit sector!

Any contribution truly makes a difference, Thank you for your time and consideration!

Carly and the other Luminary of the Year candidates will be recognized at the Letters of Love Gala on June 19 in Minnesota. We would love for you to join us for a night of celebrating Letters of Love! Tickets are available here.
