Writers’ Exchange
Annual Report 2023 - 2024
3 Wishes
By Oceania, age 10
If I had three wishes I would wish for unlimited food and drinks. Like if I said, “Donut please,” a donut would appear. For the next wish, I would wish for unlimited money because I’m sort of greedy. For the last wish, I would wish for any book, even the ones that are not realized.
“I want to write another book.
Writers’ Exchange is peaceful and really fun.”
—Maha, age 10
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!
Values 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.
