12 Days of Christmas Challenge: Day Four, Share an Encouraging Note

Who doesn’t like small encouraging handwritten notes? Your Day Four #12DaysOfChristmas Challenge — Write an encouraging message to someone using a Post-It. Everyone needs a little reinforcement. Words of inspiration maintain positive attitudes and might just be what someone needs today.    

In any given year, Catholic Charities New York connects more than 82,000 people to case management services and answers more than 24,000 calls to our helpline in 20 languages. Learn more in our story: How the Catholic Charities of New York Helpline Became a Lifeline.
