International Pen Friends(IPF)allows students to learn about other countries and cultures at first hand by writing letters to someone of their own age. IPF is also a great way to learn a new language, or to make some friends.
International Pen Friends was founded in Dublin, Ireland on 7 April 1967. The aim of IPF is to give people of all ages from every country the opportunity(机会)to get pen friends and friendship through letter writing.IPF does not use the Internet to match pen friends. IPF wants to keep the art of letter writing alive and to use that form of communication to encourage worldwide friendship. Since 1967, International Pen Friends has provided more than one and a half million people aged from 7 to 80 with pen friends.
It is possible to join IPF individually(单独地),with a friend or as part of a school class or youth group. The person who wants to be a member of IPF should provide his or her personal information such as the name, the age, the nationality and hobbies. Once the person becomes the member of IPF, his/her information will be given to other members of the club. This system enables(使能够)members to choose their pen friends by writing introductory(介绍的)letters to the people, and to receive surprise introductory letters from other members.
IPF’s magazine-People & Places “is a fun and informative way to stay in touch with the pen friend world. The full-color magazine includes the latest IPF news, pen friend stories, letter writing advice, travel articles, poems etc.
