This card is truly complete with your handwriting on it!
Write a card with a personal message.
Small gestures make a big difference.
With this campaign, the library of Ypres and Kanjer want to bring people closer together. From October 1 to 10, 2026, you can visit a writing table at various locations in Ypres.
There you can write a card for someone in your area, or leave a warm message for someone you don't know, but who could use some encouragement. You can deliver your card yourself or leave it in a card box. We will ensure that it finds its way to someone who will be happy with your warm words.
Well surrounded
When things are difficult, connectedness is extra important. Yet many people feel lonely during those times or find it difficult to ask for help. Precisely then can a small gesture make a big difference: a listening ear, a message, asking how things are going or drinking a cup of coffee together.
Did you know that...
there are various places in Ypres where you are welcome for a chat, a cup of coffee or just to be there. You can meet other people, participate in activities or just drop by.
This campaign is part of the week of the Geestelijk Gezondheid. #resilientertogether
