Our 2020 Fundraiser
Dear Friends of Literature,
Since 1985, people have depended on us to educate and nurture writers and readers of all ages and backgrounds. We've helped thousands of adults, children and teens improve their writing and reading skills, and to get published.
Now, we depend on your help to continue our award-winning programs, give workshop scholarships to low-income students, and repair our roof that got damaged from recent storms. Your tax-deductible gift will directly affect hundreds of aspiring writers, young and old. Like all arts organizations, we depend on our members to sustain our award-winning programs. (We are a 501C-3 nonprofit organization).
We're grateful to our past donors, yet we still need to raise $4,500 to meet our budget for 2020.
Please, support the literary arts by giving a donation today. Any amount is appreciated. A gift of $75 or more includes a full year’s membership! You can donate today by clicking here:
