Amazon is inviting applications from all non-profit literary organisations in the UK and Republic of Ireland for grants to support their work.
The Amazon Literary Partnership (ALP) is back for its fifth year, providing grants to literary organisations that support and champion writers of all ages and stages on their creative journey.
With the goal of helping all communities in the UK and Republic of Ireland tell their stories through writing, the Amazon Literary Partnership supports non-profit literary organisations that empower writers to create, publish, learn, teach, experiment, and thrive. They provide grant funding to innovative groups that amplify diverse voices and strive for a lasting impact on writers’ lives, the literary and publishing communities and broader society.
Last year, the ALP supported 35 literary groups across the UK – more than ever before. Beneficiaries include organisations dedicated to helping children and young adults develop their writing skills, and community groups engaging children with the world of words.
Eligibility Criteria
Applicants must be a registered nonprofit organisation in the UK or Republic of Ireland, whose core mission is to develop emerging writers, support diversity, celebrate storytelling, and/or build authors’ careers. Organisations should be structurally and financially sound; display energy, passion, and reach; have an online presence, and an enthusiastic membership or readership.
