Below is an announcement from the Wilmington Veterans Department and co-organizer Jenn Bryson:
WILMINGTON, MA — The Wilmington Veterans Services Department is launching a pen pal program.
The goal of this program is to pair children/teens or families (pen pals) with local veterans or widows of local veterans. The Office of Veteran Services will provide the pen pal with the name, branch of service, and wartime era. This program is a great way to form bonds with our community’s local heroes.
Pen Pals Wanted
Would you like to volunteer as a pen pal buddy? Please complete this form or email Jenn Bryson at jbryson@bu.edu or call 617-877-0952 and you will be added to our list.
Veterans Seeking Pen Pals
Are you a veteran, a widow of a veteran or know of a veteran who would like to take part in our program? Please complete this form or contact Director Lou Cimaglia at 978-694-2040 or 978-404-0435. We pair veterans with an individual or a family. Your pen pal will send an introductory letter.
