Building, Empowering and Growing our Communities
Are you passionate about a particular idea, cause, organization, social or environmental issue and want to help? Can you envision a way in which youthful storytelling can be harnessed to advocate on behalf of this entity? Sometimes we experience impulses, nudges, or wonderings about things to which we are meant to give our attention. And sometimes that’s because it is through the investment of our time, energy, support, or resources, that a greater purpose can be fulfilled.
​
Advocacy doesn’t have to be loud; it doesn’t have to be flashy; it doesn’t even have to be expensive. The heart of advocacy really, is quite simple.
Advocacy is the impassioned and unwavering support of something.
Here at New Day, we invest in advocating on behalf of things that …
Inspire youth • Utilize storytelling • Invite, dignify, and redeem community • Create a positive social or environmental impact
Curate an Advocacy Proposal
New Day Storytelling Advocates believes in empowering young people to creatively collaborate, mentor, manage, and spearhead meaningful storytelling advocacy endeavors that promote positive social and environmental impact.
If you have an idea that could offer opportunities to capture meaningful stories while creating a positive impact, please submit a Proposal Advocacy Form
New Day Storytelling Advocates desire to model an unfaltering, relentless, and selfless love through our youth advocacy.
When thinking outside the box sometimes we fail along with the best of our intentions. Mistakes are part of the creative process and often lead to more innovative solutions. If our hearts are in the right place and we proceed thoughtfully, remain humble, and of service, we will transform with our ideas and accomplish some very amazing things together in this lifetime.
And here’s the thing.
Advocacy is not for the faint of heart. It requires grit, perseverance, time, and lots of effort. So, in the spirit of keeping, it authentic, New Day challenges you to really think about an advocacy proposal and your role therein.

Consider your gifts, skills, talents, and what unique aspects YOU can offer to help bring your vision to life.
