  • What is the Post it Love Process?
    The Post it Love Process takes your creation straight to a child's heart. Once we receive your Post it Love notes, we carefully count each one and input them into our system, allowing you to see the impact you and other postal pals have made. After counting, your notes proceed to the verification stage. During verification, we read every note to ensure they are written on index cards, appropriate for 2nd to 5th graders, and legible for their reading level. Following this, your notes are sorted into one of three bins: good to go, modification, or do not use. In the modification step, we make sure that notes written on materials other than index cards are glued onto index cards. We use index cards because they are sturdier than standard paper, post-it notes, and card stock. We also add designs or stickers to notes that lack decorations, ensuring every student receives the same quality of note. Once a note is approved and meets the Post it Love standards, we stamp a special "Post it Love" verification stamp on the back of each good to go note. We then separate the notes based on grade level, with easier-to-read notes going to 2nd graders and more complex notes going to 5th graders. Every week, we hand-select the appropriate number of notes for each classroom from the 2nd to 5th grade containers. Finally, the notes are delivered to the designated schools and teachers, ultimately reaching the children and impacting them from within!
  • Do I need to include my name on the Love Note?
