Every once in a while, someone in our community needs a lift.

At Story Summit, we have writers from all walks of life—some thriving, some rebuilding, some standing right at the edge of their creative breakthrough but needing a helping hand to stay in the circle.

That’s where Be An Angel comes in.

The idea was inspired by Summiteer Annee Martin, who has been an angel quite a few times and quietly sponsored several writers in our community. Her generosity sparked a simple thought: What if more of us could do the same?

Recently, WAGS Treasurer Stacey Powells added to that spirit by contributing her speaking honorarium to fund another scholarship.

Through the Write a Great Story Foundation, Summiteers can sponsor a one-year Story Summit membership scholarship for another writer in the community.

The scholarship rate is an exclusive $499.99 for a full year, and because it is offered through our nonprofit foundation, your contribution is tax-deductible.

Your gift might allow a writer to:

Finish their first screenplay
Complete a novel that has been living inside them for years
Find the community and encouragement they need to keep going

We have already seen how transformative this community can be. Sometimes all it takes is one generous person saying:

"I believe in you. Keep writing."

If you would like to Be An Angel, you can sponsor a writer through the Write a Great Story Foundation GiveButter page.

Your generosity helps keep the circle strong. And somewhere in our community, a writer will keep flying high because of you.
