Jacob Cramer is a 19-year-old sophomore at Yale University. He's a young man who cares deeply about the elderly and the loneliness he knows many of them battle. A few years ago, Cramer decided he wanted to raise up senior citizens with his "Love For The Elderly" organization, to remember them with a handwritten note. To date, nearly 100,000 cards and letters have been sent out to seniors around the country and beyond. In honor of his Grandmother, Doris Heller Cramer - whose 98th birthday will be this Wednesday - he wants you to write a letter to a senior you know, but especially to those you don't.
