Pen Pal Program

pen pal square.png

We believe that friendships are formed from a combination of common interests and compassion.

 

Our Pen Pal Program connects people across the country with inclusivity allies - others with similar passions.

 

To encourage a safe, respectful environment, SoF volunteers arrange all activities and communications. Protecting participants’ well-being while fueling their happiness is our main priority.

 

Virtually, we plan anything from safe video gaming sessions to Zoom chats that help facilitate communication skills.

​

In person, we encourage Pen Pal Program participants to cheer each other on at sporting events, schedule outings oriented towards mutual hobbies, and more.
 

Virtual friendships that will last a lifetime

Anika, Shanaya, and Sabrina have only met in person 3 times, but have created a bond that will last a lifetime. Though they live in different states, handwritten letters and Zoom calls have kept their friendship thriving. To read more about their story, click here.
