Inspire the next generation of poets, thinkers, and dreamers

View this email in your browser
In 2024, the Academy of American Poets brought poetry education to students in all fifty states through our Teach this Poem and and Dear Poet programs, thanks to the generosity of supporters like you.
But we need your help to continue sharing vital poetry educational resources in 2025.

Your gift today will enable access to weekly poetry lesson plans featuring the works of contemporary poets for forty thousand teachers and librarians serving grades K-12.


Your generosity will support the multimedia initiative Dear Poet, a program that invites students from grades five through twelve to write letters in response to poems written and read by today’s award-winning poets, initiating a meaningful connection between young people and writers.

We know that with a new era on the horizon, we must embrace a shared commitment to the transformative power of poetry, reaching students across the nation, especially those in communities where access to arts education is limited. But we can’t do it without you.
support poetry education in the new year
Your donation today helps ensure that the next generation has the opportunity to see their lives corroborated and transformed through access to poetry. Together, we can inspire the next generation of poets, thinkers, and dreamers.

With hope,
Ricardo Maldonado
President and Executive Director

P.S. As a thank you for your generosity, we will send you a beautifully designed set of twelve Academy of American Poets postcards featuring select words from our Poem-a-Day Guest Editors, a special gift for donations starting at $50.
