Hello! We are so excited for your interest in starting a chapter of Profit & Pressure. Every new chapter means more stories told, more voices heard, and more creative spaces for students. Whether you are an artist, writer, or organizer, we are thrilled for your consideration in becoming a part of our amazing, growing community. We are built around creativity, honesty, and shared experiences.
What are the benefits to starting your own Profit & Pressure chapter?
- Build leadership skills through managing submissions, showcases, or mini-events
- This quantifiable impact can be shown off for private high school or college admissions
- Help turn unheard voices into published work
- Everyone can currently be published in our digital gallery. In the future, there will be collaborative zines and potential Amazon KDP publications.
- Earn service hours through creativity (2 hours per piece)
- Turning artistic effort into recognized service.
- Create a safe space for others to express themselves and their emotions
- One of our three pillars is honesty, meaning we value that over perfection
- Build community around real conversations
- Chapters can connect students who may not usually meet by creating collaborative projects
- Gain experience in running a real organization
- You can gain real leadership experience through recruiting members, promoting events, communicating with the virtual HQ, and representing the nonprofit in your community
