WHO WE ARE
Our Mission
Because of the COVID-19 Pandemic, many seniors around the world have had tighter restrictions on visitor access and even family time. In the effort to keep seniors connected to their communities and make new bonds, we have turned to communicating through physical letters! Our goal is to pair teens and seniors throughout the country through personalized letters. In today's day and age, the art of letter writing has gone out of style as most teens have never handwritten or sent out a letter. However, a few generations ago writing letters was one of the prime ways of communication. We want to bring back this popular practice as a piece of nostalgia for seniors and to enlighten teens about the days pre-screens. We believe that the penpal pairs will be able to send meaningful messages (and even trinkets!) through physical pen and paper.

We have hundreds of teen pen pals that are looking forward to brightening a senior's day! Please email us if you have any questions/inquiries and if your senior living home would like to participate in our pen pal program. We would be happy to email you a downloadable/printable flier that you can put around your senior living home. If you're in need of stamps and envelopes we can also mail those out to you!
