OWL Pen Pal Registration Form
We are bringing back the OWL Pen Pal Program for the Summer of 2021. While we continue to practice social distancing, seniors are particularly vulnerable to isolation and loneliness, thus impacting their immunity and mental health. Austin Bat Cave's OWL Pen Pal Program connects and matches young people with senior citizens in the greater Austin area through a digital pen pal program that fosters meaningful connections between generations and helps build empathy for participants. This program is ideal for young writers (age 10-18) with strong reading and writing skills, who are able to work independently and are self-motivated (they will be responsible for corresponding with seniors in their community) and who are interested in learning from and engaging with their senior pen pal. This program will run from early May-the second week of September.
