    Hi everyone, my name is Jonathan George. I started Handwritten Hope after a meaningful interaction at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. Since then, our mission has been simple: to bring hope to those who need it most. I'm excited for the future, as we continue to spread our impact across the nation.

    Kaylee Jeon

    Media Officer

    Hey everyone! My name is Kaylee Jeon, and I am delighted to be one of your media officers this year. I have a great fondness for music, and I believe that the written letters at Handwritten Hope can be just as impactful as song lyrics. I am looking forward to meeting both new and returning members during this school year!

    Hello! I’m Devshree and I’m one of the media officers for next year! If I’m not singing or playing video games, I’m probably doing something crafty or watching soccer. I love how sports build amazing communities and I hope to bring that same energy to Handwritten Hope as we work to make our community a better place :) !
