The 2024–2025 Storyteller Matinee has officially wrapped, and what an incredible journey it’s been. This year’s Award Ceremony was a vibrant gathering of voices, stories, and communities coming together to celebrate the power of storytelling.

We are thrilled to recognize 20 outstanding students who each received a $1,000 award for their inspiring work and dedication to making a difference. Their stories remind us of the impact one voice can have when shared with the world.

To everyone who applied, thank you for your courage, creativity, and commitment. Whether or not you received an award this year, your contributions matter. Keep sharing your story, keep shaping your community, and know that there will always be space for your voice in future cycles.
