outreach

join our campaign and change a person’s life

donate today

“We are very grateful to have received tremendous support from the community and, specifically, Project Write Now. When we initiated this partnership we all thought it would benefit our children, but I am certain none of us envisioned the resulting depth and magnitude to which this partnership connected to our students.”

— Dr. Jared Rumage, Superintendent, Red Bank Borough Public Schools

Our community outreach programs are geared toward helping underserved youth and adults develop the writing and communication skills needed to achieve academic/professional success, resilience, and personal growth.

Our programs include one-time and ongoing reflective creative writing workshops for local schools and mission-based organizations, college essay support, and summer workshops.

These programs are supported by donations from individuals and businesses.

testimonials

  • You can’t measure these experiences and put them in a data sheet. [Our students] are becoming better, kinder people through your writing workshops.

    Amy Campbell, AVID 21st century teacher, Red Bank Middle School
  • PWN allows me to express my emotions and ideas on paper.

    teen student
  • PWN is a place where I can write freely, a place where I can improve my writing skills and talk to others about my ideas.

    teen student
  • PWN has taught me how to express myself through writing. I’m more brave and outgoing. I never realized what I write could be so powerful.

    teen student
  • PWN is a place where all your ideas and dreams can be written and people won’t judge you or say anything negative. You just have to reach deep inside of you to find your creativity and your voice is heard.

    teen student
  • Project Write Now thoughtfully and elegantly gives Womyn’s Worth the opportunity to express exactly what’s on their hearts and minds. Each writing prompt and exercise has been so well presented and received. The women often didn’t even realize that they could and would share on this level.

    Sharda Jetwani-Love, Program Director, Lunch Break
  • Project Write Now has inspired me to journal, and this has helped me relieve stress and anxiety. Also, how to forgive myself. Thank you.

    Lunch Break
  • I leave our Womyn’s Worth sessions feeling serine and complete. There is always a sense of welcomeness and an opportunity for self expression.

    Lunch Break
  • The Teacher Writing Collaborative has been a powerful opportunity to connect with other teachers who believe that to teach writing, we must be willing to write. The writing prompts and discussions encourage us to use writing as a way to express our identity, which is closely linked to the work of educating for a just society. The strategies shared and conversations we have inform the teaching I do. This has been one of the most authentic teaching networks that I have been involved with.

    A. K.
  • The Teen Ambassador program has allowed me to connect with fellow writers and channel my creativity in a place where I feel heard and appreciated. It has provided me with so much support in an extremely confusing time.

    M. F.
  • That was a truly amazing experience. We cannot thank you enough for your time and great coaching. These few weeks have not been easy … This meeting lifted my spirit and energized me.

    Second Chance Red Bank Cancer Support Group
  • Working with Project Write is refreshing. They provide the space to breathe … releasing the strings that do not serve us anymore through creativity, allowing each one of us to ‘innerstand’ the importance of self-love. Thank you for all the work and healing you do.
