Apply your professional skills, explore your personal passions, and help a teen find their creative voice! We are seeking women AND men writers to mentor teens during the daytime. All you need are tenacious communication skills, a love of writing, and the willingness to show up. 

Happy New Year from WriteGirl! For me, the end of the year often feels like that moment you finish a chapter in a great book. There is so much to sit back and think about: What has changed? What will happen next?

In 2016, WriteGirl will help over 400 underserved girls (and some teen boys!) develop the confidence and creative skills they need to propel them into academic, personal and professional success.

How to you find the right gift for a teenage girl? We have a LONG list of things that will help a girl for her entire life!

We asked our girls and women writers to write some advice for our community on how to enjoy December and get through the holidays. You’ll notice some repeated themes in their writing…and some opposing statements also! We always say, “Never underestimate the power of a girl and her pen,” and our girls truly embody that motto.

Today is Giving Tuesday, a day to give the holiday shopping a rest and donate to a charity in need. Donate to WriteGirl today and help us serve a record number of girls from underserved communities in 2016.

As we begin our 15th anniversary season, we have a record number of girls and an unprecedented number of volunteers to mentor them! But as our program expands, so do our financial needs. As we enter this season of giving, we look to our friends and supporters to help sustain WriteGirl.
