PenPal Mentors

Penpal Mentors for People Struggling with Bullying, Depression, LGBT issues, Loneliness, etc. Or for people who just want a pal.

A penpal mentor's purpose is to cheer you up through snail mail (or email, if you prefer). You can post or submit to the site if you want a mentor. A mentor will send you a letter (including things like pictures, CDs, small dollar store items, etc.) once a week. If you write back to your mentor, he/she will respond as many times as you would like. You can post to our discussion forum at the bottom of this site to connect with other people who are struggling with similar issues. Submit your name, email address, or home address (whichever you prefer) by clicking the mail icon below or by clicking the "Ask" tab above. Your information will not be shared or made public.

Frequently Asked Questions about Becoming A Mentor

Recently, we’ve been receiving a lot of questions about how to become a penpal mentor or if we’re accepting new mentors. Our answer is below.

“I want to become a mentor. Will you consider adding more mentors or guest mentors?”

The penpal program is pretty small right now; we have 4 mentors who each have just 2 penpals. However, we are in the process of expanding (or at least trying to through social media advertising). It would be great to have more mentors once we get more penpals and we will contact you when this becomes the case. In the meantime, if you know of people who might be in need of a mentor and want to be added to the list, you can contact us with their permission and that would aid the expansion process. We’d love to get more people involved.
