826 Save Our Stories

826 Save Our Stories

826 Valencia is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting under-resourced students ages six to eighteen with their creative and expository writing skills. 

The organization opened a new writing center in the Tenderloin and needed volunteers to help kids improve their writing skills. So we sent out an S.O.S… Placing our students’ half-written stories all around San Francisco asking people to help finish them and see what it’s like to be a tutor. We even sent out the S.O.S digitally on Craigslist in the Lost & Found section...what better place for a lost story to go? 

See the stories that were saved and learn more about becoming a volunteer: www.saveourstories.net.
