Nonprofit / Accessible to serious writers working in all genres

With your help, we can keep our fees low to continue to support emerging and established writers in the Boston area. We aim to increase our ability to subsidize local writers, and with your help, together we can expand Boston’s portfolio of exceptional literature.

It costs $2,500 to support one member per year, and in this way, every member receives a subsidy from the Room. We depend on public grants and private donations to make up the $500 per member shortfall. In addition to this across-the-board subsidy, we are currently providing financial assistance to 25% of our members; assistance is given to proven members who require emergency or seasonal aid. We also support five Fellows annually who receive a fully-funded year-long residency in the Room. (below photos) As a matter of policy - no serious writer is turned away for financial need. Thank you for considering a donation of any amount you can afford.

Thank you for considering a donation. We are a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization and every dollar you give, regardless of the size of your donation, is tax deductible and directly supports our mission, our community and our members.
