Annual Report Apple and Mango
By Ayla, age 8, and Aya, age 7 Once upon a time there was an apple and a mango and they became best friends. They went to the playground and played on the monkey bars and watched the sunset. Then they went home and changed into their pajamas, brushed their teeth and went to bed.
Mission
The Writers’ Exchange is a community that supports under-resourced kids and youth to build their confidence and get excited about reading, writing and their own potential!
Vision
All kids will grow up with the power to make their own choices, achieve anything and be happy.
All of our programs take place on the traditional and stolen territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓ əm, Sḵwx̱ wú7mesh and Səl̓ílwətaʔ Nations. We recognize that we all work within ongoing systems of oppression and colonization, and we commit to being a decolonial ally by building long-term relationships and by listening to, learning from, and amplifying the voices of our Indigenous friends.
