The League of Extraordinary Penpals is a quirky bunch of humans - all over the world - who love to sit down and write notes, letters, and postcards and put them in the post.

Looking For Penpals?

For over a decade, our letter writing and penpal community has been filled with people around the world who make much of letter writing and snail mail. You too can be part of this growing community, whose only weapons are stationery, postage stamps, beautiful writing utensils, washi tape, and mail art.

We just might save the world!

We in the League of Extraordinary Penpals believe that letter writing just might save the world.

If you’re feeling…

…disconnected,

…rushed,

…confused by “the noise” of social media, 

…annoyed or left empty by meme sharing,  

emails, and texts…

The League of Extraordinary Penpals offers you something completely different. Our letter writing superheroes are also looking for new ways to find meaning and live intentionally. We desire to slow down and use tried and true ways of connecting with other people. Together, we take stock of what’s essential and worthwhile. 

Our super powers are kindness and acceptance. We celebrate our differences and make room for a myriad of races and ethnicities, beliefs, genders, orientations, religions, abilities, and all walks of life. We are introverts and extroverts. We are young and old. Our brains all work differently. We all bring our own unique powers to the League of Extraordinary Penpals - just how we like it.

Do you have this in common with us? Do you love the feel of paper in your hands, and placing the stamp in the upper right corner of an envelope? Does your heart leap when you receive a tangible piece of mail that is hand addressed for you?

Then, come hang with us!
