Help us uplift San Diego’s youth, one story at a time.

The Wright Voice Award Program is back for Chapter 2: Amplifying Youth Voices with Father Joe's Villages, and we’re ready to make an even bigger impact.

In January 2026, our participants didn’t just write their stories, they became published authors. Their work was compiled into a journal and auctioned at Father Joe's Villages Children’s Champions Gala, giving their voices a powerful platform in front of the community.

Now, we’re expanding, and we need your support to continue this momentum.
