Get the Write Friend!
Is your mailbox looking a little empty these days? Find another GL Girl and share your world!

Ever wish you had faraway friends? Girls who could let you know what's up in Wisconsin? A bud who knows the trends in Tuscaloosa? Or maybe just someone you can tell your innermost secrets without the chance of your entire school finding out? Pen pals are perfect for that!

While you could just start writing random addresses in Hackensack, we have a system in place. The good news: We have someone whose sole job is to find you the perfect pen pal. (Thanks, Georgia!). The bad news: It's gonna cost you $20. So hit up the 'rents for twenty smackeroos, and follow the easy steps below.

Here’s how our Pen Pal program works.

1. Click this link to download our online application. Hit PRINT THIS PAGE, then mail it back to: Pen Pal Program, c/o Girls’ Life, 4529 Harford Road, Baltimore, MD 21214 with your application fee of $20 in the form of a check or money order. Please make the check payable to Girls’ Life.

2. Once we receive your application and payment, we’ll then match you up with five awesome pen pals and send you the contact info of five girls who have the qualities you are looking for the most. Please allow four to six weeks for the names to arrive.

3. Then the ball is in your court to write away! We will also give your name to other pen pals who send in applications and are looking for a pen pal who is the same age or close to it and likes some of the same things you like. It’s possible you could get up to ten girls writing you.

And remember, the most important thing about being a pen pal is to follow all of the rules on being a safe pen pal. And write back often to your pen pals, for Pete’s sake.

THE RULES: Having pen pals is fun, but play it safe. If you receive an e-mail that makes you feel uneasy, tell your parents right away. Never give out your home address. For your safety, we ask that you use an email address instead of using a home address. No solicitation allowed.

THANKS FOR SIGNING UP! YOUR PEN PALS WILL ARRIVE IN 4 TO 6 WEEKS!
