Give a student the power to tell their story

At Uptown Stories, we believe that when a young person can write their story, they can write their future. And you can help make that possible.

‍For just $35, you can give a student one full hour of writing, mentorship, and creative expression. Your support ensures that every child—regardless of their family’s financial situation—has access to a space where their voice is heard and their story matters.

More than 80% of our families rely on reduced tuition, no questions asked. Thanks to donors like you, we never turn a student away.

Will you help fuel a young writer’s imagination today?

Your generosity creates opportunities for students whose voices are often unheard. With every story they write, they gain confidence, build community, and shape a future where they know their words—and their dreams—matter.
