Launched in 2016, The Hope Prize has a proud history of championing powerful storytelling. What began as a local prize in Australia has grown into an international competition, welcoming stories from Ireland to India, and everywhere in between.

Each year, we proudly partner with a charity creating real and tangible change where it’s needed most.

An anthology of the best submission is generously published by Simon & Schuster.

Funds raised by this beautiful book directly support the work of our partner charity.

Our mission is simple: to provide a credible platform for writers, harness the power of storytelling, and spotlight charities creating meaningful change.

There really is no prize quite like this.
