Volunteer with WriteGirl:
WriteGirl welcomes energetic women of diverse professional backgrounds.

Join an energetic community of professional women dedicated to empowering teen girls in Los Angeles through creative writing and self-expression. WriteGirl is looking for volunteers to work on projects ranging from event planning and public relations to writing curriculum and editing publications. Or engage in a one-to-one mentorship with a teen girl that mutually enriches both her life and yours.

Apply your professional skills, explore your personal passions and make a difference in a young woman’s life. All you need are tenacious communication skills, a love of writing and the willingness to show up. The next volunteer trainings and orientations will be held in the Fall.
