Whether it’s a five-figure grant from an established foundation, a $25 check from a mentor’s friend, or a a pro bono donation from a graphic designer…donations of all varieties make our work possible. Our supporters demonstrate their commitment to the next generation of women writers by sharing their skills, financial resources, and unique voices, and we in turn are extraordinarily grateful. We couldn’t do it without you.
