This #GivingTuesday, please consider donating to Women Who Submit.
In 2023 WWS was able to accomplish the following thanks to our donors and funding from the California Arts Council:
- Raised speaker fees from $200 to $300 per workshop facilitator and $100 to $150 per panelist
- Gifted $2,000 in individual writers’ grants through the Ashaki M. Jackson No Barrier Regrant and Kit Reed Travel Fund (a $500 increase from the previous year)
- Returned to hybrid programming by hosting 8 public events across the city including our 10th annual SUBMIT 1 Submission drive at Pocha LA.
- Announced, curated, and edited the third WWS anthology, TRANSFORMATION, to be released by the new year in partnership with Jamii Publishing
- Created mentorships for 9 of our members through a special opportunity with Reyna Grande
- Established new WWS chapters in Portland, ME, Bloomington, IN, Austin, TX, and San Diego, CA with a Canada chapter launching in early 2024.
A #GivingTuesday tax deductible donation from you will mean helping WWS financially support more writers in 2024, grow our in-person programming while staying committed to accessibility through virtual options, promote our writers to a wider community, and ensure marginalized writers receive the same free support.
