Keep NOPF Free by Donating

We believe poetry should be free and accessible to all, but organizing the festival comes with significant costs. If you're able, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to NOPF, or better yet, set up a recurring gift. Click here to access our easy-to-use donation portal.
