This special fundraiser supports free haiku education for youth in Camden, NJ helping children express themselves through poetry, mindfulness, and creativity.
Due to a challenging fundraising year, our goal for this event is to raise $5,000. This funding will directly support bringing free beginner-level haiku to four Camden classrooms at 30 children each (120 kids total!). To make this event a success, we’ve secured eight participating poets, and we hope you will consider joining us in the audience for this special invitational.
Featuring:
