A Fare-Well Pen Pal for a Year

A year of handwritten letters, one a month, so someone keeps hearing from a real person long after the crisis ends.

$400

What this is

Twelve handwritten letters, posted one a month for a year. Written by hand, and written for them. They arrive without warning, ask nothing, and require no reply. Tell us something you'd like carried through the year, a phrase, a memory, a name, and we'll write with it in mind. This is real correspondence, written for one person.

What's included

  • Twelve handwritten letters, one posted each month
  • Written by hand, never printed
  • A phrase, name or memory carried through the year if you want
  • No reply expected

Why this helps

A card in month seven is the most disproportionate act of care on this list. A whole year of them, from the same person, starts to feel like someone who actually knows you rather than a service checking a box.
