Prison Pen Pals

Prison pen pals do much more than making the occasional connection with incarcerated individuals. At Friends 4 Prisoners, we are dedicated to creating meaningful, lasting friendships between the incarcerated and people like you. When you sign up to be one of our pen pals for inmates, you genuinely make a difference in the lives of inmates around the world.

Write Letters to Prisoners: Change the Future for an Inmate One Note at a Time

What is Friends 4 Prisoners? We pair inmates looking for a pen pal with non-incarcerated individuals who want to make a difference in someone else’s life. When you get involved with our mission, you become more than a pen pal. You become an inspiration to incarcerated individuals who are looking for a second chance at life.

When you sign up to be connected with our inmate penpals online, you have the chance to be a:

  • Mentor
  • Legal Aid
  • Educational Resource
  • Counselor
  • Employer Upon Release
  • Housing Assistant
  • So Much More!

How Does the Pen Pals for Inmates Process Work?

We help individuals on both sides of the relationship get connected with their perfect pen pal.

Sign Up an Inmate

Is your loved one currently incarcerated? Prison is a lonely and desolate place for anyone, even those with supportive family members who visit often. Helping your loved one create an inmate pen pal profile can significantly improve their quality of life.

When you sign up an inmate looking for a pen pal, we’ll help you create an online profile that connects them with individuals all over the world. Receiving mail, making new friends, learning about other cultures, and connecting with mentors give your loved one something to look forward to while incarcerated. Give the gift of access to life beyond the confined fences of prison by listing your loved one as an inmate pen pal online today. Create a Pen Pal Profile

Write to Prisoners Online

If you are looking for a meaningful task that allows you to inspire others to reach their full potential, consider signing up to write letters to prisoners through our service. We have designed our database and search engine to make connecting you with an inmate easy and seamless.

Browse through the latest inmate penpals online and learn more about incarcerated individuals looking to connect. You’ll have the chance to view pictures, explore their introduction, and get to know about each inmate’s demographics before you click. Write to Prisoners Online
