Have you received a Happy Spot card from a stranger, and you’re wondering what it’s about?

In 2009, Meps was crossing the street in Seattle when she discovered a “Happy Spot” marked on the pavement with chalk. She loved the idea so much that she recreated it, using signs, chalk, and later, business cards and postcards.

Meps’ father, Hank, was a huge fan, and he sent the cards to friends and family members all over the country. In his memory, she redesigned the original card and created a large print version.They are always available to anyone who needs one.
