Our Mission
We are a nonprofit organization in Louisville, KY that inspires students ages 6 - 18 to recognize the power of their voices and stories.
Students in our Young Authors Book Project wrote poems, essays, fiction stories, and letters exploring justice, identity, and community. We are thrilled to publish their work in a book this fall—for now, enjoy a sneak peek at some of their work!

We are always looking for volunteers to work with our students—we believe that one-on-one attention from a caring adult is what helps students grow. We have a lot of opportunities that take place outside of the classroom too: curriculum development, copyediting, design, illustration, event planning, and shop keeping. We are always looking for ways to collaborate with other artists and community organizations too!
Volunteers are the heart and energy of our work. Whether you want to work directly with our students or you would prefer a behind-the-scenes, eyes-peeled-for-comma-splices job, we want to hear from you!
Young Authors Greenhouse needs your help to grow! Our goal is to increase confidence and academic performance of many students through in-school projects, after-school tutoring, workshops, and field trips. Every contribution will be used in a meaningful way to support Young Authors Greenhouse and our students.
