| It's a MATCH
(Let's make sure we don't drop it!!!) |
|
In case you missed the news on GIVING TUESDAY. The Rumpus received a generous gift from a donor who agreed to match up to $3,000 in all donations received that day. The bad news is that we've only raised $876 ($1,752 with the match!). The good news is that the donor is giving us a few more days to rally support. Can you help us claim the remaining $2,124 by donating now through Monday, December 4?
This is our 1st every match and it means $25 becomes $50, $50 becomes $100, $3,000 becomes $6,000! Here's how your donations help the The Rumpus's mission of supporting risk-taking writers: - $50 covers one contributor
- $100 pays 2 contributors
- $400 covers 1 month of our current contributor pool funds
- $3,000 doubled by the donor match = $6,000 covers our current donor contributor pool for all of 2024!
If we receive $3,000 in donations by midnight, Monday Dec. 4, we will receive the full match! Help us ensure we don't miss out on this major opportunity and leave unclaimed funds on the table. Your support now through Monday in any amount matters x 2! |

The Rumpus only survives with reader support |
|
| Founded in 2009 in San Francisco and now based in Asheville, NC, The Rumpusis one of the longest running truly independent online literary and culture magazines. Our mostly volunteer-run magazine strives to be a platform for risk-taking voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere. We do not charge a reading fee for the over 7,000 submissions we receive a year and we regularly publish over 450 original pieces a year. This includes fiction, essays, poetry, comics, interviews, book reviews, themed columns and special issues, and more. In the past two years alone, work published by The Rumpus has been included in Best American Essays, Best of the Net, Best American Poetry, along with being included in numerous other anthologies and authors first books. With reader and donor support, we hope to continue championing exciting voices. If you want to see the Rumpus continue to exist AND improve, please become a MEMBER or DONOR today! |
