For 11 years, we’ve created spaces where stories are shared, healing happens, and community grows stronger.

This celebration isn’t just about looking back — it’s about fueling what’s next: the vital expressive writing programs that unite us and help our community thrive.

From our journaling circles for youth to our expressive writing workshops for adults to live community storytelling events, every gathering has one purpose: to offer belonging, dignity, and hope when life feels hardest. These programs are lifelines — especially for those who are often unseen or unheard.

Right now, we’re aiming to raise $11,000 by 11/11 to deepen and expand the work that connects youth, adults, and educators who need it most:

Women who are unhoused seeking stability and support
LGBTQ+ youth needing safety and self-expression
Teens facing anxiety, pressure, and loneliness
Educators experiencing stress and burnout
Adults seeking live storytelling events that connect and uplift

Each program is built on one belief: everyone deserves a place to be seen, heard, and cared for.

These programs are vital lifelines for our community. Without them, stories go untold. Healing pauses. And too many people are left feeling isolated and alone.
