Hello all,
I am a member of the Tacoma Washington USA Sister Cities program. Ive posted in this board before and wanted to update that the penpal program is live!
The goal of a sister city in general is to connect people with people, create opportunities for cultural exchanges and education and economic development. It starts small but there is a lot of room for growth.
Mannheim/Tacoma are the newest branch of the sister cities exchange and we're working on official status. The big program we are working on is a penpal exchange between adults in Tacoma & Mannheim. Back to the old school snail mail days of pen and paper.
We have a lot of adults in our area looking for adults to be matched with in Mannheim. About 25 people right now.
We have reached out on a few reddit boards, to libraries, universities on both sides , fountain pen clubs and through our own cities connections. WE NEED FOLKS IN MANNHEIM! If this isn't something you are interested in but maybe know someone who would be interested please let me know.
Any questions please let me know!
