OVERVIEW

We invite all Summer Searchers – students, alumni, staff, and our partners & supporters – to submit original, creative content for the consideration of publication.

Whether an op-ed, a short film, a surrealist drawing, a week-long takeover of @summersearch, an in-depth feature article, or anything in between, this is your chance to share your stories, talents, ideas, and more with an audience of more than 15,000!

Your voice uplifts our mission, empowers our families, and promotes positive transformation where we work, learn, and live. Share it! 

PROCESS

Submit your piece or idea via marcomms@summersearch.org or the form below.

The Summer Search MarComms Department will respond to your submission in an appropriate timeframe. We'll partner with you on how we can best publish and share your content, go over any edits, and solidify any additional details.

If/when published, Summer Search will include your (the creator’s) full name, city, and state adjacent all published content. 

If you have questions, ideas, or changes, the Summer Search MarComms Department is available for consultation and collaboration at any point of your project.

In December 2023, a panel of Summer Searchers will identify a maximum of three top submissions; each will receive network recognition and a $1,000 monetary prize.
