Ways to Give
A Community-First Approach to Fundraising
Our vision is that NaNoWriMo will be fully funded by community members who share our commitment to joy, storytelling, inclusiveness, and belonging. We aim to provide our community donors with the advocacy and education you need to feel good about making a contribution to NaNoWriMo and the diverse creative community we’re a part of. Learn more about our impact.
We’re also committed to learning from and working with the Community-Centric Fundraising movement. We ground ourselves in equity and social justice, and most importantly, we foster a sense of belonging and interdependence with donors and non-donors alike. Whether you can give money, time, or the gift of your creative energy, we’re excited for you to join in!
