WRITERS HELPING

WRITERS SINCE 1917

|

WHAT WE DO

Since 1917, the Authors League Fund has helped professional authors, journalists, critics, poets, and dramatists who find themselves in financial need because of medical or health-related problems, temporary loss of income, or other misfortune. Many of those we help suffer severe health problems but have inadequate insurance; some face eviction; others are older writers whose income has ceased through no fault of their own. The Fund exists to help professional writers continue their careers with dignity by providing no-strings-attached “loans” to pay for pressing expenses. Repayment of this emergency support is not

required.

WE ARE ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FROM WRITERS EXPERIENCING INCOME LOSS DUE TO COVID-19. CLICK “APPLY NOW” TO VIEW OUR ELIGIBILITY
