Friends of the Writers House
Letter to Friends | Become a Friend | Make a gift online

The Kelly Writers House is delighted to recognize the members of our Friends Campaign: alumni, staff, parents and other friends who have generously given to Writers House and the more than 150 programs it presents each semester. The sustaining gifts these Friends have given go directly to support the unprecedented creative collaboration of Penn students, faculty, staff and alumni in such programs as Live at the Writers House, Philly Talks, Talking Film, Penn and Pencil Club, Alumni Writers Series, Penn's many student publications, and visits by contemporary poets, screenwriters, and novelists, artists, editors, and publishers.

Thank you, Friends, for helping us protect, sustain and enhance the real achievement of the Writers House project. For more information about how you can support the Writers House, please contact us at wh@writing.upenn.edu!
