The Amazon Literary Partnership has announced $1 million in grant funding to 66 organizations across the country. It has also donated emergency relief funding to Artist Relief and PEN America Writer’s Emergency Fund, both of which are providing grants directly to writers impacted by Covid-19. In addition, Amazon awarded $120,000 in grants to the Academy of American Poets and the Community of Literary Magazines and Presses to establish a poetry fund and literary magazine fund, respectively.

The program has been active since 2009, and has awarded more than 175 organizations more than $13 million in grant funding in total over the past 10 years. Grant recipients, according to Amazon, include “nonprofit writing centers, residencies, fellowships, after-school classes, literary magazines, national organizations supporting storytelling and free speech, and publishers of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry.”

“The Amazon Literary Partnership champions organizations that support writers, poets, translators, and diverse voices at every stage in their career,” Alexandra Woodworth, manager of the Amazon Literary Partnership, said in a statement. “Given the impact COVID-19 has had on the literary community, we are proud to continue to fund these remarkable organizations sustaining the literary culture in our communities now and for the future.”
