PeaceBike Pen Pal program is a free service!
You have taken your first step to making a new friend from another part of the
world.
- This pen pal program is designed for young people up to 18 years of
age.
|
- Adults who sign up as a pen pal will only be linked with other
adults who sign up.
|
Important: If you are under 18 years old you must discuss your
decision to sign up for a pen pal with your parents. This is required because
anyone who has access to the internet can sign up to be a pen pal and PeaceBike
cannot check to make sure they are who they say they are. For this reason you
should never call or visit your pen pal without your parent/guardianīs permission and if
your pen pal ever writes anything inappropriate to you please contact PeaceBike
immediately at penpals@peacebike.org
.
Whew! That was the bad news. The good news is that hundreds of kids
around the world from Kenya to Belize are writing to PeaceBike Pen Pals and
having great fun! They sometimes send photos, draw pictures, or tell each other
stories.
If you decide to become a PeaceBike Pen Pal your name, age, gender(boy or girl),
and interests will be put on our PeaceBike computers and we will email
you an address of another young person with similar interests. We may give your
name and interests out to more than one person, but no more than five other young
people, so you may receive as
many as five letters. As a PeaceBike Pen Pal we ask that you write a letter back to every
person you get a letter from. If you are only going to write one letter to them
please tell them that you only want to write one letter. If you will do this and have already spoken to your parents
about becoming a PeaceBike Pen Pal then please fill out the following form.
