Do You Dream of Being a Journalist? AllyKatzz Has Opportunities For You!

As a big fan of AllyKatzz, a cool social networking site that gives girls ages 10-15 a place to be heard for girls ages 10-15, I’m really excited about their upcoming relaunch. The site is shifting its focus to give girls ages 9-17 a chance to share their thoughts on the things that are important to them. By engaging teens as “reporters” for the site, the new AllyKatzz will give both tweens and teens a content-rich environment where they will delve into topics that are meaningful to them and put more emphasis on their voice. Official AllyKatzz reporters will be given their own AllyKatzz.com columns and have the ability to literally write and ‘right’ their own stories!

Being a reporter for AllyKatzz comes with lots of perks, including:

• Being able to “Speak Up, Be Heard, and Change Their World” — through words, videos, art, and photos.
• Becoming “official” reporters — credentials and all.
• Focusing their time and talent on topics that are of interest to them and others — from the daily life of a tween-teen, to celebrities and fashion, to current events — and having their efforts showcased to millions of people world-wide.
• Opportunities to interview authors, actors, singers, musicians, politicians, CEO’s and more because of AllyKatzz.com’s relationships.
• Being published from a young age — and having a portfolio for college.

Interested? You’ll have to go through a rigorous application process that includes a sample blog, a letter of recommendation, written parental permission, and the stamp of a notary public. But it sounds to me like the payoff if you’re selected will be well-worth the effort!

To find out more and apply, download this form. But hurry and get your application in soon…the new site will be launching next month! Good luck!
