Deadline: May 18, 2025
Applications are open for the Amazon Literary Partnership Grant 2025. With the goal of helping writers tell their stories and find their readers, the Amazon Literary Partnership supports nonprofit literary organizations that empower writers to create, publish, learn, teach, experiment, and thrive. They provide grant funding to innovative groups that amplify diverse voices and strive not only for a lasting impact on writers’ lives but on the broader literary and publishing communities.
Previous grant recipients represent both local and national institutions of all sizes and include nonprofit writing centers, residencies, fellowships, after-school classes, literary magazines, national organizations supporting storytelling and free speech, and internationally acclaimed publishers of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry.
Grant
- Grants typically range from $5,000 to $20,000.
Eligibility

- They rarely support school-affiliated programs (K-12, MFAs).
