After the SWIYA Program...
StoryWish SWIYA Graduation
After completing their storybook, children graduate as StoryWish SWIYA young authors. Before or during the SWIYA graduation celebration, they will receive three printed storybooks to share with friends and family, a goody bag, and StoryWish merchandise specific to their local chapter. All young authors and mentors will be present at the virtual or in-person graduation to celebrate all the child’s hard work! To protect the child’s privacy, storybooks will not be publicly shared anywhere or published. The covers, however, will be available in the storybook archive on the website.
StoryWish SWIYA Alumni Catch-Ups
Brief events inviting alumni and respective mentors depending on interest to catch up and share how each continues to read and write.
Bonus: Fun author book talks and activities!
As a StoryWish SWIYA alumni, you'll still hear about exciting events hosted by the StoryWish SWIYA Author Cohort for the local University chapter.
