Phyllis Pierce, who organized making the hearts, said there were at least 68 hearts hung up on April 2.

Phyllis Pierce encourages her neighbors at the Commonwealth at Calumet to hang up hearts for health care workers.

esidents of the Commonwealth at Calumet hung up handmade hearts last week to show their appreciation for health care workers. Phyllis Pierce came up with the idea after she had seen similar trends, such as putting a teddy bear in a window or making sidewalk chalk drawings. She said she chose hearts because she wanted other residents to be able to make them with items they have in their house. Pierce said most of the residents in the neighborhood are age 55 and older, and have been sheltering in place for weeks. “I thought it would be nice to give them something else to think about,” she said. Pierce said she posted a notice about making the hearts on the community’s Facebook
