Giving to the Montreal International Poetry Prize

Your gift helps ensure the prize flourishes in the years and decades to come, allowing us to continue supporting poets from around the world through our initiatives.

Administering a cash prize isn’t all we do. The Montreal International Poetry Prize is a literary arts organization dedicated to building community through poetry. Our annual reading series, the biennial anthology of shortlisted poems we publish, and the poems we share in reading groups and classrooms bring poets’ unique, insightful, and innovative perspectives to diverse audiences and readerships. The opportunities for professional development that the prize offers through its affiliation with McGill University are training the next generation of literary arts workers. Every gift supports initiatives that help the prize continue to evolve, widening and deepening our ability to shine light on the poetry that can move and inspire us.

To avoid a conflict of interest, those who donate to the Montreal International Poetry Prize must not submit their poetry to the current or any upcoming competition. By donating through the link below, you agree to these terms.

The Montreal International Poetry Prize is a non-profit organization. You will receive a tax receipt for your donation and, if you’d like, recognition on our donor page.
