PEN WRITERS' FUND FOR VICTIMS OF HURRICANE KATRINA
|
PLEASE NOTE:
The PEN Writers’ Fund for victims of Hurricane Katrina is no longer
accepting applications.
The Fund reviewed 48 cases and gave grants to 28 writers affected by
the hurricane. In total the Fund distributed over $16,000 in a
two-month period. Processing time for grants was kept to an average of
four days. PEN is grateful for the support of the Lannan Foundation in
particular and also the New York State Council for the Arts, in
addition to the generosity of PEN members and the reading public, who
donated both their time and money. The PEN Writers’ Fund will continue
to help authors affected by the hurricanes that devastated the region
through the year-round fund. |
