GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement that empowers all of us to "reimagine a world built upon shared humanity and generosity." All of us at Copper Canyon Press are proud participants in GivingTuesday for we believe that poets and their poetry allow us to learn from, wonder at, and reimagine the world around us for the better.

This GivingTuesday, we invite you to give generously to ensure world-changing poetry can flourish.

We are delighted to announce that your gifts, up to a collective $5,000, will be matched by members of our Board of Directors including: Anne Barker, Emily Raymond, Ira Silverberg, Rick Simonson, and Dan Waggoner, some of whom are pictured below. When you make your gift to Copper Canyon Press during our 24-hour campaign, you will receive a personal thank you note from the Board member who matches your gift, including their favorite Copper Canyon Press poem—their gift to you.

Your donation today will allow the astonishing collections of poets, like those in our Spring 2025 season, to find their way into the literary canon and the hands of readers like you.

For our fifty-one years of operation, we have recognized that the power of poetry and Copper Canyon Press remains firmly rooted in community. You are our community, and thanks to your vital support, you ensure poetry can continue to find a home at our Press. Please show your love for poetry by making your gift to our GivingTuesday campaign before 11:59pm PT on Tuesday, December 3rd.

As 2024 swiftly comes to a close, we look forward to laying the groundwork for another year of poetry and community. Thank you; we are so grateful that you’re here!
