How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Confirm they’re still admitted

    Hospital stays are short, and mail that lands after a patient goes home is usually returned, not forwarded. Before you send anything time-sensitive, check with the family that your person is still admitted to Cook Children's Medical Center and, if you can, get their current room number.

  2. 2

    Address it to the patient at the hospital

    First line: the patient's full name. Add their room number here too — Cook Children's Medical Center asks for it. Next line: Cook Children's Medical Center. Then the address: 801 7th Ave., Fort Worth TX 76104, United States.

  3. 3

    Keep it flat and cheering

    A card, a letter, or printed photos are perfect and easy for volunteers to deliver to the room. Skip cash and anything valuable. Flowers, latex balloons, and food are restricted on many units for patient safety, so check with the unit before sending those — a card always gets through.

  4. 4

    Write or upload your card to PostPal with the address above prefilled. We print it, add your return address so they can write back, and mail it for you — no printer, stamps, or post office run, which is what most people use to reach someone in hospital from out of town.
