## What is Fam Friends?

Fam Friends turns the month into a newsletter your group actually reads.

Start a private group for your family, your college friends, or the people you keep meaning to call. Through the month, everyone gets a handful of short questions — a photo, a memory, what you're proud of, how you're really doing. When the month closes, all of those answers are written up as one warm newsletter and delivered to the group.

Nobody has to schedule five phone calls to stay caught up. You answer when you have a minute, and you find out how everyone is doing in one sitting.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Create a group and invite people by email or with a join link.
2. Questions arrive through the month — two the moment you join, more as the weeks go on. Answer with a few sentences, a photo, or a quick check-in. Skip any you don't want.
3. When the cycle ends, Fam Friends writes the issue from what everyone shared, weaving the answers into one voice while keeping what each person actually said.
4. The group's owner previews it and publishes it to everyone.

WHAT'S IN AN ISSUE
• A front page with the month's news — milestones, wins, plans, new jobs, new pets
• Photo Wall — everyone's pictures, with their captions
• How We're Feeling and Health Check-In
• Shout-Outs — the thank-yous people don't say out loud
• Get to Know Me — the questions you'd never think to ask
• Memory Lane

NOT SOCIAL MEDIA
No feed. No ads. No influencers. No strangers. No follower counts. Only the people invited to your group can see what's in it, and nothing in Fam Friends is public. The questions ask about real life instead of a highlight reel, so this is a place you can say the month was hard and know that the people who love you will read it.

WHO IT'S FOR
• Families spread across cities and time zones
• College friends who haven't all been in one room since graduation
• Grandparents who want more than a holiday card
• Anyone who moved away and doesn't love the phone
• Groups where one person ends up keeping everybody else updated
