A Letter From the Founder 

I founded Poetry4Progress in 2023 in the hopes of sowing the seeds of a more just and equitable society through the global perspective of young poets. 
With each edition, I have been continuously inspired by the voices of those who had something to say about the world as it exists from the soil beneath their feet. I hope that Poetry4Progress continues to sway the hearts and minds of each reader and contributor — compelling the next generation to sing our next verse.
