Donate to the Denver Writing Project
The Denver Writing Project is happy to offer all of our youth writing opportunites and the Advanced Institute FREE of charge during these trying times. We will operate at a loss, but serving teachers of writing and youth writers remains vital to our collective future. To that end, any donation is greatly appreciated.
*If making a donation please make sure to write "For the Denver Writing Project" in the Comments box. This will specifically ear-mark the donation for the DWP instead of the CU Denver English departmentin general (whom we love and receive a great deal of support from, but probably not who you were trying to donate to by clicking here).
The Denver Writing Project is a local site of the National Writing Project.
