Express Media has been providing unforgettable opportunities and supporting young writers for over 30 years. As a national, not-for-profit, incorporated association, we rely on the generosity and support of our community; readers, writers, contributors and alumni to fund the future of our organisation.

Without the security of ongoing funding, Express Media needs further assistance in order to deliver a year long program of opportunities to writers across the country and continue to publish Voiceworks, Australia’s premier youth literary journal. In short, we need your help.

As a registered Deductible Gift Recipient Organisation with Tax Charity Concession status, donations of $2 or more are tax deductible. Donations made via the portal on the Express Media website are secure and issued with an instant tax receipt.

You can give a one off donation or set up a regular payment securely through GiveNow.

However large or small, every contribution made to Express Media allows us to continue to develop, grow and increases the reach of our program. Donations not only help us enormously, but are also a vote of confidence and encourage us (and all our young writers) to toil harder towards our ambitions.

Express Media has contributed to launching the careers of countless Australians who have made a significant contribution to Australian arts and culture. Our network of alumni includes Lee Lai, Adolfo Aranjuez, Adalya Nash-Hussein, Hasib Hourani, Elizabeth Flux, André Dao, Benjamin Law, Liam Pieper, Anna Krien, Hannah Kent, Tom Doig, Lili Wilkinson, Justin Heazlewood, Maxine Beneba Clarke, Josephine Rowe, Romy Ash and Christos Tsiolkas among others who have significantly impacted the Australian literary, artistic and political landscapes.

With your help, we can ensure that the next generation of young writers is given the same opportunities to develop their skills, publish their work and get their foot in the door.
