💌 Sometimes it takes a village...

Tuesday, Sep 3

Twelve-year-old Daya recently attended a camp at the MacPhee Centre for Creative Learning in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. She wrote her grandma a postcard while away, and was heartbroken when she realized soon after sending it that she forgot a stamp. 

A quick-thinking counselor attached the above note👆 to the mailbox where Daya mailed her postcard; it asked the mailperson if they could try and find the missing letter and attach a stamp for the youngster. 

  • The counselor and camper were pleasantly surprised when there was a note written back the next day from an anonymous postal worker: 
  • "Found it and stamped it! Have a great day!" it read. Daya's letter arrived at her grandma's house a few days later. ❤️
