Purpose Postcards are an opportunity to connect with someone currently incarcerated in Pennsylvania.
Just follow these easy steps:
- Select a person to write to from the list below. This list has been provided by Let’s Get Free. Learn more about their work at letsgetfree.info.
- If you want to start a correspondence, consider your capacity. How regularly are you able to write? We think once or twice a month is appropriate.
- Don’t feel like starting a correspondence? No problem! Decorate your postcard using the art supplies at the table. A personal drawing or note is just as impactful as regular correspondence.
- Drop your postcard off in the mailbox. Feel free to decorate the mailbox too!
- Tell the people you came with tonight to write a postcard!
Tips for starting the conversation:
- Introduce yourself and tell your person what inspired you to write them.
- Describe your setting: where you are, who you’re with and what you see and hear.
- Describe what you are reflecting on during your visit to Eastern State and ask the person you are writing to share something they’ve been reflecting on lately.
- Ask the person you are writing to what their favorite things to do outside are and share some of yours.
