Thank you for YOUR INTEREST IN SUPPORTING THE AWCS!

The Alexandra Writers' Centre Society is a federally registered charity that has been offering programs and services to writers and creatives of all ages for more than 40 years. We have one of the strongest literary communities in the country and it only continues to grow. Everyone has a story to share, especially when the world seems to be more fractured than ever. We need writers; we need storytellers; we need creative communities that allow individuals to explore, create and learn. 
​
When you support the Alexandra Writers' Centre you are supporting individuals looking for a way to cope with the world around them. You are supporting individuals overcoming adversity by finding their own voice and the courage to share their stories. You are supporting an up-and-coming author and strengthening the creative talent in our city and province. You are supporting youth writers looking for a place they can call their own. You are strengthening a community. You are making dreams come true. You are putting more books in the hands of readers. You are changing the world with a word, a sentence, a story, a poem, a novel, a memoir.
