Tens of thousands of kids send us their original stories every year. While we cannot adapt them all, we remain committed to ensuring that we read and respond to every single story we receive because we believe that when a caring adult tells a child that their words and ideas matter, that child will believe them. We are deeply grateful to be able to engage thousands of volunteers to provide personalized notes that compliment each author’s creativity and encourage their future writing. This endeavor has been recognized with the Anthem Award and Shorty Impact honors, and is powered by major corporations and their volunteer programs like Amazon, NBCUniversal, Salesforce, and Bloomberg, to name only a few. During an hour-long Story Love event, anywhere from 5-500 volunteers come together – on Zoom or in person – to read stories written by kids and write notes of encouragement. With as little as 2 weeks’ notice, we can set up an event for your team and take care of everything. Event types include: • The Happy Hour - meaningful time for your team to gather, laugh, and make a difference. With this option, you provide a list of volunteers who will each have their own set of stories to read and be encouraged to share delightful details with the group. • The Team Builder - a unique team-building event where participants work in pairs or small groups to read and respond to stories together, building camaraderie and connection in an experience unlike any other. • DIY - colleagues participate on their own time with live or recorded instructions (15-20 minutes in length) and access stories remotely for up to one week.
