Amazon Literary Partnership seeks to fund organizations working to champion diverse, marginalized, and underrepresented authors and storytellers.
Grants are given to innovative, energetic groups whose core mission is to support diverse, underserved and marginalized writers, develop emerging writers and/or build the careers of working writers to connect them with readers. They help writers across all genres and formats, fiction and nonfiction, including poetry and translation.
In collaboration with the Academy of American Poets, the ALP administers the Poetry Fund, which awards 10 to 15 grants annually to organizations supporting poets at various stages of their careers. Similarly, the Literary Magazine Fund, managed in partnership with the Community of Literary Magazines and Presses (CLMP), provides grants to small literary publishers, ensuring a vibrant and diverse literary landscape.
