Dear Dyslexia: The Postcard Project

We are highlighting one of our partners, Gershoni Creative Agency, Dear Dyslexia: The Postcard Project in our new blog.

Dyslexia is a common learning disability that affects millions of people worldwide, yet it remains widely misunderstood and stigmatized. In an effort to shed light on the daily experiences of individuals with dyslexia and foster empathy and awareness, the "Dear Dyslexia Postcard Project" was born. This unique initiative, hosted by Gershoni Creative Agency, invites individuals with dyslexia to share their personal stories, challenges, and triumphs through art and heartfelt messages on postcards. In this blog post, we'll explore the Dear Dyslexia Postcard Project and its mission to create a more inclusive and empathetic world.

The "Dear Dyslexia Postcard Project" was inspired by the desire to give a voice to those who often remain unheard and unseen. People with dyslexia often face misconceptions and stereotypes that can lead to feelings of isolation and inadequacy. By encouraging individuals to share their personal experiences and insights, the project aims to break down these barriers and promote understanding.

The project is relatively simple yet incredibly impactful. Participants with dyslexia are invited to create postcards that express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences related to dyslexia. These postcards can take many forms, from visual art and illustrations to handwritten messages and poetry. Each postcard is a personal and artistic reflection of the creator's unique journey with dyslexia.

The postcards are then sent to Gershoni Creative Agency, where they are carefully curated and shared with the world through the project's website and social media platforms. This digital gallery allows viewers to explore the stories and perspectives of people with dyslexia, helping to dispel myths and build empathy.

The "Dear Dyslexia Postcard Project" is a remarkable initiative that seeks to amplify the voices of those who often go unheard. Through art, personal narratives, and heartfelt messages, individuals with dyslexia are breaking down stereotypes and fostering understanding. This project reminds us of the power of empathy and the importance of celebrating the strengths and talents of every individual, regardless of their learning differences.
