Poetry Foundation Grants


The Poetry Foundation’s General Operating Support grant program provides unrestricted funding to nonprofit poetry organizations, presses, publications, and select literary arts service and membership organizations to support and strengthen core operations, including staff salaries; rent and utilities; technology; general administrative expenses; marketing, fundraising, and technical support; and hiring new paid staff.

The application deadline for general operating support is July 15. If the deadline falls on a weekend, applications will be due the following Monday.
