High School Chapters

WYWA has established four active high school chapters across San Francisco, each led by a student executive board at its respective school. Throughout the school year, chapters host writing circles, workshops, and peer-led discussions that foster creativity, strengthen storytelling skills, and build a supportive community of young writers. Each chapter works toward publishing an original collaborative book by the end of the year, amplifying the voices, stories, and experiences of young women across their school community.

Chapter Achievements

Saint Ignatius WYWA & Lowell WYWA

Lowell WYWA and Saint Ignatius WYWA partnered to lead a citywide Care Bag Initiative supporting survivors of domestic violence. Mobilizing more than 100 student volunteers, the initiative combined education with action through a domestic violence awareness workshop, the assembly of 100 care bags, and a fundraising campaign that contributed over $5,000 to La Casa de las Madres and the Asian Women's Shelter. Together, students transformed compassion into meaningful community impact.
