About LWB
The Full Story
Welcome to Letters Without Borders! We are a global initiative dedicated to fostering connections and understanding through the power of written communication. Operating in multiple countries, our project aims to bridge cultural gaps and promote empathy among diverse communities. Learn a little about our beginning below and join us in our mission to create a world every voice is heard and valued.
The Beginning
Chloe Oh founded Letter Without Borders, a non-profit organization, when she was only 15 years old. The idea for LWB came to her when she reflected on a school project she had in 7th grade. She realized that having a penpal in Malawi was one of the highlights of her year. Chloe found the experience of learning about Malawi culture and aiding in the process of learning English so fulfilling that she started LWB as a revival of that same project 3 years later.
The Future
At Letter Without Borders, we are excited to share our vision for the future. As we continue to grow, we aim to expand our program globally, reaching new communities and fostering connections across cultures. Our commitment to promoting understanding and collaboration knows no boundaries, and we believe that by sharing our message worldwide, we can make a meaningful impact. Join us on our journey as we work towards a more connected and compassionate world.
