The Wright Voice Award

A Storytelling Program That Empowers the Next Generation

The Wright Voice Award is a six-week storytelling and writing initiative designed to help students discover confidence in their voice and the courage to share their story. Through engaging lessons and reflective prompts, students learn to turn personal experiences into powerful written narratives.

This program culminates in a contest, where students have the opportunity to submit their original stories for recognition. Selected winners will receive awards and the opportunity to be published by The Wright Press. This is more than a contest—it’s a platform for self-expression, healing, and celebration. We believe every student has a story worth telling, and The Wright Voice Award exists to honor and amplify those voices.

The Mission

At The Wright Press, we believe in the transformative power of storytelling. By partnering with English teachers and schools, The Wright Voice Award aims to:

  • Inspire creativity

  • Foster authentic self-expression

  • Celebrate diverse voices and lived experiences

  • Build confidence in the next generation of storytellers

Why It Matters

Every student has a story worth telling. The Wright Voice Award offers a space where those stories are not only heard—but celebrated. By participating, students gain more than writing skills—they gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the impact their voice can have on the world around them.
