"Hannah Brencher"

Love Letters to Strangers.

There is not much argument about what positive changes technology has brought to society, yet at the same time is it also creating a generation who only knows the Internet? Has the baby been thrown out with the bath water? What effects may this be having on your clients of this generation?

Hannah Brencher's mother always wrote her letters. So when she felt herself bottom into depression after college, she did what felt natural — she wrote love letters and left them for strangers to find. The act has become a global initiative, The World Needs More Love Letters, which rushes handwritten letters to those in need of a boost.
