About pen gals
At pen gals, we believe in the power of the pen to bridge distances and bring hearts closer. Living in our digital age, moments, messages, and notifications are so very fleeting. The speed of life, with so much of it happening behind our screens, leaves many of us feeling alone, disconnected.
Our mission is to combat that loneliness and create meaningful connections by fostering friendships between girls and women from different corners of the world — one heartfelt, hand-crafted letter at a time.
Through connecting like-minded pen gals and offering courses on the fundamental beauty of letter writing, we hope to build a more inclusive, understanding, and loving global community.

I can't wait to check the mail!
Receiving letters in the mail is so exciting. I look forward to seeing what's inside the envelope including the stickers and art my pen gal has made for me. It makes me feel special and important.

My favorite part of the week!
Signing up for pen gals has made me more aware of my thoughts and feelings as I sit down to write my new friend every week. I feel like it's unlocked a part of me that's more expressive and mindful.

I feel more confident writing
Having someone in a different country looking to my letter to improve their language skills makes me feel a sense of responsibility. I am also learning a lot about different cultures and it's fascinating.
