National Shut-in Visitation Day is held February 11th each year.
National Shut-in Visitation Day shares hope and friendship with the millions of the men, women, and children who, due to physical, mental, and/or emotional reasons, are incapable of leaving their homes and live out their existence cut off from the outside world. These situations leave people feeling alone, isolated, and dispirited.
Think about your own neighborhood. Is there someone you rarely see? Would it make their day if you brought them flowers, cookies or a plant and shared a cup of tea? What about your local nursing home or hospice? So many people end up in such places completely alone and far from their families. Try spending the day talking, listening and engaging people who don’t have the opportunity to leave. Gift them an afternoon of normalcy.
Today is a day about kindness and caring, helping your fellow man and giving the most valuable gift you have: your time and yourself.
