Through our free digital magazine, literary events, and education program, Words Without Borders uplifts the voices of 200+ international writers each year, connecting them with hundreds of thousands of readers worldwide. Our paid fellowships and grants support the next generation of translation professionals, contributing to the growth and diversity of our field. In everything we do, we advocate for literary translation to be recognized as what it is: a vital and connective art form for an increasingly polarized world.

You may not be aware that donations from readers like you make up more than a third of WWB’s annual budget. Each year, we rely on our community to help us publish and promote innovative writing in translation that can’t be found elsewhere, train hundreds of educators to bring global literature to their students, and provide fair compensation to writers, translators, editors, and support staff. In other words, we can’t do this work without you.

If you can, please support WWB with a donation. You can donate securely using the form below or mail a check made out to Words Without Borders to the WWB office:
