Mail worth keeping.

Send your love, one letter at a time

You know what you want to say. We help you say it beautifully — and mail it to their door each month.

You think about them all the time

You mean to call. You want them to know how much they matter. But life gets busy, and the words don't come easy. The Porch Letters closes that gap — turning what's in your heart into beautiful, personal letters that arrive in their mailbox every month. They just think someone who loves them finally found the time to write.

How It Works

1

Tell us about them

Fill out a detailed questionnaire about the person you're gifting to. Share their hobbies, memories you share, family details, what makes them laugh.

2

We craft a beautiful letter

Our writers create a deeply personal, handwritten-style letter using the details you shared. This is your voice—we're just helping you say it beautifully.

3

You review & approve

We email you the letter draft. Read it, edit it, make sure it's perfect. Nothing ships without your OK. You're the author—you control every word.

4

They open their mailbox

We print your approved letter on beautiful stationery, hand-address the envelope, and mail it. They just see real mail from someone who loves them.

What makes this different

  • You're the author. We're your ghostwriter, not the creator. Every letter comes from you.
  • You approve before it ships. No surprises, no sending something you don't love.
  • Real paper, real ink. They receive a tangible letter, not a generic print-on-demand card.
  • Every letter is personal. No templates. No filler. Just their story, beautifully told.
  • Monthly consistency. They know to expect your letter. They wait for it. It becomes a moment they look forward to.
  • Peace of mind. If life gets busy, you've already shown up for them this month.

"I bought this for my mom after dad passed. The first letter made her cry—in the best way. She called me and said 'honey, that was the most beautiful thing anyone's ever written me.' She doesn't know I had help. But I do. And that's what matters."

Questions?

How personalized are the letters, really? +

Completely. We read everything you tell us about them — their childhood, their passions, inside jokes, family details — and weave them into letters that feel genuinely personal. This isn't a template. Every letter is unique to them.

What if I want to change something in the letter before it ships? +

That's the whole point. When we email you the draft, you can suggest edits, changes, or additions. You can rewrite sentences, add details, remove things that don't feel right. We incorporate your feedback and send you a revised version. Nothing goes to print until you approve it completely.

How does the questionnaire work? +

After you purchase, you'll fill out a detailed form about the recipient. We ask about their hobbies, family, memories you share, places they love, what makes them laugh — anything that helps us understand who they are. It takes about 10 minutes, and you can save it and come back to it.

When does the first letter ship? +

Your first letter ships within 3 weeks of purchase. Here's the timeline: You order and fill out the questionnaire (days 1-5). We craft the letter (days 5-15). We email it to you for approval (day 15). You approve (day 15-18). We print and ship (by day 21). They receive it within a few weeks, depending on location.

How often do letters arrive after the first one? +

Approximately every 4 weeks. You'll receive a tracking email each time one ships so you can anticipate the joy. The same approval process happens for each letter — you review, edit if needed, and approve before it's printed and mailed.

Can I cancel? +

Yes, you can cancel anytime through your account. If you cancel after the first two letters, there's no refund for the remaining time (you've received our guarantee). If you cancel during the first two letters, you're eligible for a full refund.

Is shipping really free? +

Yes, completely free to all US addresses. We've built shipping into the price because we want the gift to feel generous and surprising. When they find a real letter in their mailbox — not a bill, not junk mail — it feels like you did something really special.

They're not going to remember another Amazon gift card

But they'll keep this letter forever. They'll reread it. They'll show it to people they love. They'll feel, every single month, that you know them. That you care. That they matter.
