F.A.Q.

Is there a charge to attend a Letter writing social?

There is no charge to attend a community letter writing social nor are the supplies.  We realize many people don’t have stationery, writing supplies, or even a stamp.  No worries, we have a limited supply that you can use to send off a letter or two. 

Is the Arizona Correspondence Society a non-profit?

Yes! We are a 501-3c non-profit organization based in Arizona. As a non-profit organization, the Arizona Correspondence Society is grateful for your generous support in meeting our mission. Your donation will go to support education, classes, and events.  Please contact us for more information on how you can donate.

Do you provide penpals?

No- We do not.  If you check our resources, you will find different opportunities to write letters to people in need of a little letter love.  Pen Pal matching is very time intensive and unfortunately, we are not able to do any matching.
