New Pricing Model: The Green Bottle Method

At Women Writing for (a) Change, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to find and use their voice. To better reflect that commitment, we’re now using the Green Bottle Method (developed by Alexis J. Cunningfolk) as our pricing model for classes.

Each class now offers three pricing tiers based on financial circumstances, with a limited number of spots available at lower price points. We ask participants to choose thoughtfully—paying below your means limits access for those who truly need it.


This model allows us to expand access while sustaining the quality and integrity of our programs. We’re grateful to be part of a community that supports equity and shared responsibility.

Summer Writing Camps

WWfaC Summer Writing Camps are for students entering grades 4-12 and provide opportunities for them to discover and develop their unique writing voice while building literacy skills and confidence.


With trained facilitator guidance, they'll explore creative writing, self-expression, and explore the big questions about their future & identity. Whether writing stories, essays, poetry, or personal reflections, students will practice articulating their thoughts and embrace the power of words.

Grades 10-12: June 8-12

Grades 7-9: June 15-19

Grades 4-6: June 22-26
