Adopt a Classroom!

Over the last four years, PeacePal has developed successful pen pal letter exchange programs in many locations throughout the world. Thousands of students have learned about life in faraway places and created friendships. With your support we can continue to develop deeper relationships in these and new locations, and provide the funding necessary for international partners in impoverished locations to participate.

Help us build the "house of peace" with the following support levels!

  • Foundation: $15 per month provides school supplies such as paper, pencils, and pens for an international classroom.

  • Framework: $25 per month provides school supplies and expedited postage for PeacePal letters coming to U.S. classrooms.

  • Bricks & Mortar: $50 per month provides school supplies, postage, and helps provide a portion of the stipend and necessary program costs for one of our volunteer international program directors.

  • Raise the Roof: $100 per month completely covers operational expenses to implement one of our international programs including school supplies, postage, and program director stipend.

  • Reach for the Stars: $200 per month makes a dream come true for dozens of schoolchildren by providing funds to refurbish an existing school building. Many classrooms function in substandard conditions without basic necessities such as desks, chairs, lighting, toilets, and clean drinking water.
