Why Donate to Sixteen Rivers Press?

We publish several beautiful books of poetry per year; as one might imagine, these books are expensive to produce. Sample costs for the production of one book:

• Book design: up to $1800
• Copy-editing and proofing: up to $1000
• Printing and shipping costs: up to $4000
• Marketing, advertising, and promotion: up to $1200

Any donation you make goes directly into the making of an actual book in order to offset the costs noted above. To sustain the work of the press, we rely on donations, however small or large, to cover these costs in addition to total sales of our books. We also apply for every grant for which we qualify. However, grants are not always an assured part of our annual budget.

Please know that any donation you are able to send us will help to pay for the design, printing, and shipping of next year’s books. And because we are a nonprofit, any donation above $25 is tax deductible. You can become a loyal supporter of the press by sending in a donation.

Individuals who support the press with donations of $250 or greater (Watercourse and Wellspring) are eligible to receive a set of the current year’s new titles.
