We are officially launching our first fundraiser and we need your help 📍Built from community and connection to others, we are still moving in the direction of telling stories. As we push forward into 2027, we are raising $10,000 for our free public writing workshops and $15,000 to provide free writing workshops for schools, out-of-school time programming, and adults enrolled in social services. Why? Because we believe we can create change globally by creating shifts locally. Share this post, send it to some friends and colleagues, share your Why on our website, and/or donate! We are planning a fun event for the Spring as we lead this campaign out. Join us today 🫶🏾 by @thesparrowsfortune
