Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Email ThePandPFoundation@gmail.com to ask how the mentorship program accepts people and when the next event or awards call is..

What to expect

The site does not describe a first visit. Events and training take place at the Pen & Pencil Club building on Latimer Street. The awards cover beat, investigative, sports, visual, and audio journalism about Philadelphia.

Tips for your first visit

  • Ask in your email whether there is a fee, and what the mentorship program asks of people who join.
  • The site lists only an email address and a mailing address, not a phone number.
  • Mentorship pairs are described as newer journalists with experienced local reporters, so say what stage you are at in your email.

Newcomer welcome

Takes some effort for newcomers (2 out of 5). Why we say this: The mentorship program and events are described, but the site gives no application step, eligibility, or sign-up page, so the way in is unclear..
