826 Valencia

Transform students’ relationships to writing, building their confidence and pride. Provide individualized attention and support, so students can make great leaps in learning. Partner with under-resourced schools and communities, providing our free services to those who would not otherwise have access. Cultivate wonder, inspiring imagination and creativity in all of our spaces and programs. Volunteers are at the core of how we serve students. You don’t need to be an expert writer. You do need a deep belief in the students we serve and an eagerness to learn together. The majority of our students are youth of color, and we especially seek volunteers who identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color.
