Notebooks & Pens is a passionate community of recurring donors that help to

• transform the literary arts into a field where Black poets thrive, and
• impact the lives of readers through the power of Black poetry.

Recurring donors receive a monthly recording of an original poem by a Black poet and will be able to experience gatherings throughout the year, bringing them closer to Cave Canem’s programs and more.

Notebooks & Pens provides vital and sustainable support for the advancement of Cave Canem’s mission and allows us to foster deeper engagement with recurring donors, where together we can broaden our impact on the lives of readers nationwide and Black poets in search of a literary home.
