How It Works
After registering, you will be matched with a NYC public school grade-school student to act as a pen pal or “Peace Pal”.
You will be agreeing to establish a pen pal mentoring friendship
by posting a letter through the mail once per month during the school
year (Sept. - June).
Your Peace Pal will reply to you each month as part of their english/writing course. Because our member school has agreed to incorporate our Peace Pals program into their academic program, we must insist that by registering as a Peace Pal, you agree that you will not let your child down by missing a letter or sending one too late. And we’ll make that as easy as possible for you by sending monthly email reminders.
By mentoring a child, through a letter posted about once
a month, you can greatly enhance the life of one young
inner city child.
To register,
click on the link below and fill out our form so that you
can be matched with your student. Once a match is made,
you will receive a Peace Pals packet with your student’s
introduction of him/her self along with a monthly letter-writing
schedule and pre-addressed envelops for your convenience.
We will also include your student’s school schedule for
helpful insight into their schedule of tests or academic
highlights of which you could be of great support.

This program was designed by the Chelsea Morrison Foundation to reflect and continue the quiet kindnesses Chelsea offered to others while she was here with us.
