Free, handwritten letters of solidarity for women and gender minorities navigating a faith transition
Post-belief Postal relief :)
Leaving religion or experiencing a shift in faith can be incredibly disruptive and lonely. This project offers encouragement and friendship to women and gender minorities navigating complex faith transitions, especially as previous support systems and relationships may have transformed or disappeared entirely.
Let a handwritten letter (no AI, here!) brighten your mailbox and bring some love into your everyday life. And should you choose to write back, know that your words will be a buoy and support to someone just like you.
