Since 2014, Uptown Stories has empowered more than 3000 young writers and published more than 12,000 pages of fiction, poetry, essays, screenplays, comics, and more. But unlike most programs which serve either exclusively low-income youth or affluent achievers, Uptown Stories creates a home for all young writers through our Pay-What-You-Can Tuition Policy.

Thanks to supporters like you, every child—regardless of their family's finances—has access to rockstar teachers, inspiring workshops, and the chance to write their own story.

Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our young writers.

With deepest appreciation,

Uptown Stories
