Ready to make a new friend from a different generation? Whether you’re 10 or 110, the PenPal Club is your chance to share stories, learn from each other, and build a meaningful connection through letter writing. It’s also a fun way to practice your English writing and literacy skills!
We’ll match you with a PenPal who is at least 20 years older or younger than you—and we can even supply postage and stationery!
Since we launched the PenPal Club in 2021, almost 3,000 letters have been exchanged thanks to our amazing PenPals! The next one could be yours.
How many will you write?

The PenPal Club (and all VLC programs) have been mindfully created to be welcoming and inclusive programs for people of all kinds. The safety and wellbeing of all our penpals is our top priority.
Scan the QR code above that matches your age (or the age of the PenPal you are registering for if you are a parent or guardian).
