Dear Friend, Whether or not you realize it, you are an important member of the contemporary poetry community.
Each morning, when you open Poetry Daily’s newsletter, you are one person among thousands who support poets and publishers across the globe. Each time you read a new poem, or forward the poem to friends, or purchase our featured publication, or use Poetry Daily’s poems in your classroom, you are helping to sustain this vital art form. For that, all of us at Poetry Daily are grateful. Thank you especially to all who support Poetry Daily as donors. As a small nonprofit, our work depends on the generosity of readers like you. When you make a $25, $50, or $100 gift to Poetry Daily, you help us connect over 500,000 people per year to contemporary poetry. Your contribution helps poets find readers who love their work. As National Poetry Month comes to a close, we hope that you will support Poetry Daily with a gift of any size. Your gift will help provide the opportunity for thousands of people to read and be inspired by a new poem each day. It will help us continue producing public programs, like our current “Ecopoetry Now” reading series. It will allow teachers to bring contemporary poetry into the classroom with our What Sparks Poetry essay and writing prompt series. Most importantly, it will make the world a place where poetry is a part of everyday life. Thank you for being a part of our community. Sincerely, The Poetry Daily Staff
