The Pen Pal Project
Mar 20th 2020

Youth, Families and Seniors are all invited to join our Pen Pal Project at Beth Tzedec! Kids aged 3 to 13 will be paired up with a senior buddy to exchange weekly emails, learn about each other’s lives and cultivate spiritual nearness with safe social distancing.

Younger children will be invited to send drawings, with their parents to help foster the relationship. Older kids who can write emails will be in touch with their Pen Pal (with their parents’ help) and middle schoolers can write emails of their own and learn about building relationships with older generations.

If you or someone you know might benefit from joining this project, contact Shirel Barkan-Slater at sbarkan@beth-tzedec.org by Monday, March 30 at 5:00 p.m.
