Make a Donation

From page to stage, school to slam, young poets are creating work that is fresh, fun and fiery.

Your tax deductible donation helps young people to read, write and perform poetry, powering their imagination and building the expressive skills they need in this time of AI.

Donations made before 31 May will support our new Youth Poet Laureate Program (18-24 yo) and the Schools Poet Laureate Program (U18) - both to be launched later this year.

PLUS, they will be matched dollar for dollar by Creative Australia*, doubling your impact for double the poetry.

To thank you for your support, your gift will unlock a poem from our library, just for you. And, because every donation truly helps, all donors are acknowledged on our website.

So please make a donation today. It will go twice as far as usual.
