As Valentine’s Day approaches, State Senator Steve McClure (R-Springfield) is once again working to make sure that senior citizens aren’t forgotten, with his annual “Valentines for Seniors” card drive.

“Living in a nursing home or assisted-living facility can be a lonely experience,” said Senator McClure. “We want to make sure that those seniors know that they are an important part of the community and are loved.”

To help with this goal, McClure is asking students, scout groups, churches, and other groups to consider creating homemade cards that will be delivered to nursing homes, assisted-living facilities, and other long-term care facilities throughout the 54th Senate District.

Cards can be dropped off from now until February 5th at McClure’s Litchfield district office, which is located at 410 N. Monroe Street in Litchfield, or his Effingham district office, at 208 N. 4th Street Suite B, in Effingham. There will be a drop box inside each office during normal business hours, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
