Why WriteUnite?

Young people have things to say and opinions to share about the world we live in, and they want us to listen and take their ideas seriously. WriteUnite brings these voices and opinions together through our themes, publishing young people’s work and sharing them with the world.

So far, we have published submissions from over 2700 students in 35 countries on six continents in three books. From Brazil and Cambodia to Iceland and Ethiopia, we have worked with parents, educators, community leaders and other non-profits to provide a creative outlet for children from 3-18 years old to share their thoughts and feelings about global issues and be part of something bigger.

We are a non-profit organisation that exists thanks to the generosity of donations and the sales of our books. All our money goes towards providing opportunities and resources to children to help them feel empowered and able to create a better future for themselves, their communities and the world.
