Have You Seen Me?

These are the first 20 Relay Mail pieces to have been sent out into the world.  If you found one, we at Relay Mail would love to hear how, where, when, and see a photo of the piece of Relay Mail that you received and even the new one that you then made and sent out.  Let's get to know each other, this ever growing community of Relay Mail"ers".

With Love, Joy, and Hope <3,

Relay Mail is Launched!

Hi!  My name is Alex.

One day I was walking down the street and saw a mailbox.
"Relay Mail" was etched across the front of it.
I took this as a message, a sign, a call to Do Something.
Do something positive.

I've learned over time that in order to accomplish great things it is vital to get others involved.

Relay Mail was born.  Beautiful messages of love, joy, and hope began spreading around the world.

To survive, to thrive, Relay Mail needs you to keep spreading positive, beautiful messages.

Relay Mail is so happy you are here.

I am so happy you are here.

Thank you for visiting and for participating.


This is only the begin of something powerful with the potential to be amazing and long lasting.

If you have any questions, thoughts, or comments, please contact me at

With love, joy and hope,
Alex

Message to Copy

What is the message you are supposed to include on all pieces of Relay Mail that you send? 
This is the message, the very same one that was written on the piece of mail you received:

"Hello, Stranger <3
Welcome to the Relay Mail project.  You are now one of many people spreading messages of love, joy, and hope around the world one piece of Relay Mail at a time.
If you are moved to, please decorate your own piece of Relay Mail and send it out into the world with this message on the back.
Share your stories and photos of your Relay Mail with us and see others' stories at

Relay Mail Recieved! What now?

Welcome!

If you are here, you must have received a piece of Relay Mail.

"What next?"

1. Email us at relaymailproject@gmail.com with the story of how your piece of Relay Mail came to you and, if possible, a photo of the Relay Mail. 

With your permission, we will post one or both on the blog to inspire others and to show everyone how easy it is to spread messages of love, joy and hope around the world.  Your stories will also show others how transformative creating, sending, and receiving Relay Mail can be for sender and receiver alike.

2. Spread the Love. Make your own piece or pieces of Relay Mail and send them into the world however you choose.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO copy the short Relay Mail blurb on the back of the piece of mail you received onto every piece of Relay Mail that you send. 

Tack them on benches, telephone poles, and bulletin boards around your city for a neighbor to find.

Mail them to people you adore.

Take them on vacation. Spread the love all over the world! Leave them in a foreign land to brighten a stranger's day.

3. ONE BIG RULE! Be sure to copy the short Relay Mail blurb on the back of the piece of mail you received onto every piece of Relay Mail that you send. Thank you!
