Read Generously
Read Generously gives you the opportunity to directly support the publication of extraordinary poetry at Copper Canyon Press through supporting three of our mission-driven initiatives. In thanks for your generosity, we will send you a published Copper Canyon Press poetry book of your choice.
Your Impact
Your gift to Read Generously will support three of our mission-driven initiatives listed below. What an incredible impact you will have on our community!
- Poets’ Advance Fund: A fund that allows us to provide competitive advances to poets and translators so we can remain the home for our legacy authors, returning authors, and authors new to the Press.
- Open Reading Period: A potential pathway to publication for promising poets and translators with astounding stories that will help shape the poetic landscape.
- Internship Program: An accessible opportunity for young professionals who often come from underrepresented communities to gain firsthand industry experience in independent, nonprofit publishing.
How do I Read Generously?
Simply make a gift by using the donation form on this page. We will be delighted to send a published Copper Canyon Press book to those who give $35 or more to support our mission-driven publishing initiatives.
If your book choice is valued at more than $35 or you live outside of the United States, please consider making a larger donation to assist with the higher costs so the impact of your generosity can be fully utilized. Thank you!
