What are David's Voice writers saying?
"Writing for David's Voice provides me with an awesome opportunity to interact with
"It's no big secret to everyone who knows me that I love Cincinnati. I have lived out of state and traveled extensively, but, there is just no place like home. There are so many nooks and crannies to explore in our city, and writing for David's Voice has given me the opportunity to explore exciting events, activities, and people, and then come back and share where I've been and what I've done with the rest of the community. I hope that my experiences will inspire people to get out and explore the amazing region that we have." - Amy Kurlansky

There are two ways to write for David’s Voice! Simply write…or take it a step further and become a David’s Amp.
As you know, David’s Voice is primarily an online vehicle, so we’d like to create some presence and awareness in the community. We also are strong believers that David’s Voice is all about our writers. As a result, we’ve come up with the idea to have “David’s Amps,” or key champions of David’s Voice, who would go to key Jewish and non-Jewish events in Cincinnati. We will still have “our voices,” or our writers, but if you feel passionate about amplifying the Cincinnati community, take it a step further and become a David’s Amp!
What Does This Mean For You?
We will do our best to ensure you can attend and represent David’s Voice at key events or things going on in Cincinnati that you’re interested in (and that are in line with David’s Voice mission and goals) at highly subsidized or no cost. You could do anything from blog about the event live on David’s Voice, record video footage including interviews of people, and/or pass out David’s Voice materials, to write a post-event article about your experience on David’s Voice. And perhaps most importantly, besides giving you more “accessibility” to the events you’re interested in, you will have visibility on David’s Voice and in Cincinnati as a young thinker and thought-leader. In other words, David’s Voice gives you a platform to brand yourself in the Cincinnati community. You just need to be ready to go for it!
Specific Examples
You can become a “David’s Amp” for a variety of categories or you can focus on whatever interests you. Here are some categories:
Dining Out
Community Growth and Innovation (example, young professional events or lectures)
Youth & Family
Music and Arts
Fitness & Sports
Home & Design
Jewish Life
