Saugerties, NY...State Senator Michelle Hinchey (SD-46) today announced her first annual Valentines for Seniors card drive, encouraging New Yorkers across her 5-county Senate District, which includes communities in the Hudson Valley, Mohawk Valley, and Capital Region, to craft Valentine’s Day cards for residents of area nursing homes.
“This past year has been a tough one on our entire senior community,” said Senator Hinchey. “We want to give residents of our local nursing homes a reminder that we’re thinking of them, we support them, and we love them. We encourage students, families, and all community members to participate in our card drive to help us spread some love to our older neighbors.”
Senator Hinchey’s Valentines for Seniors initiative provides schools, families, and other area residents with the opportunity to send Valentine’s Day greetings to nursing home residents. The Senator and her team will safely distribute all valentines to nursing homes across the 46th Senate District.
Constituents can mail or drop off a Valentine at Senator Hinchey’s Kingston office (721 Broadway, Suite 150, Kingston, NY 12401) by 5:00 PM on Wednesday, February 10. For questions, contact the Senator’s office at 845-331-3810.

Senator Hinchey serves as Chair of the Agriculture Committee and sits on the Alcoholism and Substance Abuse, Commerce, Economic Development and Small Business, Cultural Affairs, Tourism, Parks and Recreation, Energy and Telecommunications, Environmental Conservation, and Local Government Committees.
