Donate to the Poetry Street Project Today!






July Update

Today, we launched our Poetry Street/RNA Web site. It is a simple, yet informative site about the Poetry Street Project,Royal Neighbors of America Chapter 20039 and all its current efforts and projects. You can visit that site at http://poetrystreet.viviti.com.

We have set it up with donation buttons from PayPal and links to this blog, the Unity Fest, etc.

The issue is nearly ready to go to press. We have one more illustration to add and we are waiting for the proofreading feedback from Mary Ellen (Kibling) and Kate (King). I have requested the printer's quote and am currently making arrangements to host a launch party for the contributors and supporters at the Midwest Writing Center sometime in September, before the public launch at the Unity Fest on September 26.

We will have a booth there again this year--to learn more about attending or participating, visit http://www.qcunited.org.

We are always looking for new members to join our Royal Neighbors chapter, and we always accept donations to help support our work

One of the new things for the Poetry Street Project is supplying under-privileged artists and writers with needed supplies such as paper, pencils, erasers. We hope to eventually expand that to include laptops, printers, ink, paints, brushes, memberships in the Quad City Arts or the Midwest Writing Center, or tuition for classes in the creative arts. Help us grow by making a donation today! (And thanks in advance for your kind generosity.)
