Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- When selecting a letter, consider your budget and organizational capacity to ensure you can fulfill the senior's wish completely.
- If a senior's letter includes requests for others, prioritize fulfilling the senior's primary wish first, then consider the additional requests if feasible.
- When packaging your gift, clearly label it with the senior's unique code and name to ensure it reaches the correct recipient.
- If you cannot personally deliver the gift, consider enlisting a friend or family member in Poland to help with delivery or shipping.
- While not mandatory, consider including a personal, handwritten letter to the senior to add an extra layer of warmth and connection.
