WCCW is more than just a conference. We’re also a nonprofit organization that supports writers in many different ways, thanks to the generous giving of our donors. We offer writers a hand-up, not a handout; all financial aid is partial so the recipient has skin in the game and is serious about their writing.

​

Are financial obstacles getting in the way of completing a writing project? Do you need new tech in order to achieve your writing goals? Do you need a day away from life's distractions to focus on writing, but can't afford it? Apply for a grant today. Successful applicants are writers working on a specific project. They will demonstrate financial need and provide details about a work in progress. 

The grant application opens for a two-week period three to four times a year. Grants are awarded as funds are available. If your application is not successful, you may re-apply after a one-year waiting period. Grant recipients will be asked to submit receipts and share a testimonial of impact for our donors.
