Support the MFA in Writing for Young Readers Fund


When 15 donors support the MFA in Writing for Young Readers Fund, a gift of $10,000 will be unlocked, thanks to a generous anonymous donor!

The MFA in Writing for Young Readers Fund at USF gives aspiring writers the space, mentorship, and community to develop their craft and share diverse stories with young readers. Students explore every form—from picture books to young adult novels—learning from award-winning authors and gathering twice a year on the Hilltop for immersive residencies.

Your gift supports:

  • Low-residency MFA programming
  • Student residencies and mentorship
  • Diverse voices in children's and YA literature

Your support amplifies new voices, bringing fresh and meaningful stories to young readers around the world.

Thank you for investing in the next generation of storytellers!
