High School Students in Birmingham Learning to Write

Writing brings me joy and opportunity - DISCO helps share that potential with Birmingham's youth!

We are no longer accepting donations on this campaign, but there are other ways for you to support us today!

Join me in supporting DISCO, the greatest little nonprofit.

The Desert Island Supply Co. is a creative writing and publishing center in Birmingham, AL, run by one of my dear friends (and fellow spouse-supporter of THANK YOU BOOKS), Brian Connell. Their in-school program, the All-City Writers Corps, is a collective of more than 300 third-twelfth graders who participate in weekly creative writing workshops designed to unleash their imaginations. To help fundraise, I'm reading a piece of writing that I love (TBD but maybe more FRANZEN????) in their EPIC READ-A-THON. The Great Outdoors is the theme. I mean who didn't connect with a Great Outdoors book as a kid? My Side of the Mountain? Fern Gully?

I hope you'll support my campaign! Just a small donation will go a long way to helping me meet my goal and helping to provide more opportunities for students to write and create. Last year I raised more than I expected! Thanks again for your support!
