"Success Stories Behind Bars"

East Berlin, Pennsylvania -

Ever wonder what a prisoner wants? If your mind is open and you have ever wanted to peek behind the prison walls, you'll want to check out this web site. Free speech, free thoughts, all welcome here. Well, if you are 18 or older and have a computer with Internet access.

Since 1996, good things have been happening behind bars with the help of the Internet and a very unique web site. Thousands of prisoners are using PrisonPenPals.com to share their stories with the public. They vary from finding a great pen pal, to displaying their talents on the Internet for the public to see.

You can visit prisoners in the United States, Australia, Afrifa, England, Belgium, Ireland and Canada. Satellite offices ran by foreign correspondents that care about prisoners getting mail, are springing up around the planet.

The main office located in Pennsylvania has been helping prisoners find pen pals since 1996. Company goals around the world include changing public opinion of prisoners, and trying to make sure that anyone who pays the $19.95 a year to be listed on the site gets mail.

Point your mouse in the direction of http://prisonpenpals.com and you will enter a world of real prisoners. Most of them are looking for a special friend to just write to. The site has been successful in raising over 10,000 books and magazines that have been donated to the prisoners and prison libraries by the computer users visiting the site. The success of "Books Behind Bars" is so great that PrisonPenPals.com has had to ask folks that are donating used books to send them directly to the prison libraries. From as far away as Australia people have sent their used reading material to be sent on to prisoners!

The cost to see the thousands of prisoners ads, addresses and more? FREE! The cost to write to a prisoner? Just a stamp! Surf in and see the success for yourself. Many visitors report that they stay on the site for hours, spellbound and read ads. There are thousands of stories to be told here.

For any non-computer user who would like a list of prisoners who want mail, simply send a self-addressed stamped envelope to the company and request one. They may be contacted at: Prison Pen Pals, P.O. Box 235, East Berlin PA USA 17316.
