Give a voice to 200+ student journalists worldwide

If you’re wondering what Youth Journalism International does with your money, the best answer is to take a look at what its students are doing right now.

In the past three months along, students in 15 countries have written stories about everything from the death of Nelson Mandela to windmills in Portugal. They’ve detailed the stories of a girl slaughtered in the Westgate Mall attack in Kenya, Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, the ongoing trauma from the gang rape of a woman in Delhi and what it’s like at Dealey Plaza 50 years after President Kennedy was shot there.

They’re building on a legacy that includes stunning pieces on the Arab Uprising, Hurricane Katrina, teen suicide, school shootings and so much more, not all of it so serious.

But don’t let us describe what these amazing young people are doing, take a look for yourselves at some of the stories they’ve done in just the past three months:
