Welcome to The Friendship Page—the website about friendship.
When Bronwyn Polson was 16 years old, she wanted to help her community. People laughed at her, but she didn't listen to them. She was sure that friendship was important to everyone. So, in 1996, she started The Friendship Page.
The Friendship Page has two goals. One is to make the internet friendlier. The other is to bring more peace to the world. It is really about "peace through friendship".
Today, 25 volunteers help Bronwyn with The Friendship Page. They all work hard and have a lot of fun. They think their work is very important.
The Friendship Page is friendly, free, fun and easy to use. There are interesting pages with songs, poems and more. You can also meet new and old friends in the chat room.
People of different ages visit The Friendship Page. Young people and old people can be friends and help each other. The website is also very safe. People don't share personal (个人的) information like their real names, email addresses, phone numbers, or pictures on it. The volunteers watch it carefully. They want it to be safe for everyone, especially for young people.
If you are interested in friendship, please visit the website.
