Deadline: 31-Jan-22
The Amazon Literary Partnership is now accepting applications from non-profit literary organisations who are looking for financial support in 2022.
With the goal of helping those from all communities in the UK tell their stories through writing and find an audience, the Amazon Literary Partnership supports non-profit literary organizations that empower writers to create, publish, learn, teach, experiment, and thrive.
The Amazon Literary Partnership provides grant funding to innovative groups that amplify diverse voices and live not only for a lasting impact on writers’ lives, the literary and publishing communities and the broader community.
Building on the success of the previous two years, the Amazon Literary Partnership is back to provide grants to UK literary organizations that empower a whole host of writers, no matter what age or stage they find themselves. In 2021, they supported a variety of literary groups, ranging from organizations that manage after school workshops, to writers’ retreats crafting specially-devised programs to cater for deaf writers, all the way through to organizations running their own literary festivals to highlight the words and work of underrepresented writers and groups which provide a platform for budding scriptwriters.
Eligibility Criteria
- Applicants must be a registered nonprofit organization in the UK, whose core mission is to develop emerging writers, support diversity, celebrate storytelling, and / or build authors’ careers.
- Organisations should be structurally and financially sound; display energy, passion, and reach; have an online presence and an enthusiastic membership or readership.
