Reader,

Do you know how many readers Poetry Daily maintained last year?*

What about the number of publishers we featured in our Daily Poem series?**

How about the class of incarcerated youth that we’ve mentored through our Poetry Alive! program?^ 

Or the number of juvenile detention centers in Virginia (which, with our upcoming innovations, will be able to leverage the same resources for their residents)?^*

Here’s one statistic we’ll give you as a freebie: Poetry Daily offers all of these things—and more—for $0. And we want to keep it that way.

But, Reader, did you also know that less than 10% of our audience gives annually to support these programs? It’s a number we’re proud of: it means the world to us that readers like you believe in our mission.

And yet we know, with your help, we can do even more. A gift of just $5 today would let Poetry Daily sustain and expand these programs, and ensure that this year’s community impact is even bigger. Will you help us get there by making a donation today?

Thank you. We’ll see you tomorrow.

Team Poetry Daily
