5 of y'all who signed up to receive fundraiser money haven't sent us your venmo/cashapp/paypal. Send us that info by tomorrow or we literally can't pay uuu (If you didn't send us your info bc you no longer need the money/ realized you're ineligible, let us know that too plz+TY)
Day it loud!
pretty much every time there's an opportunity to pay it forward, BIPOC give WAAYYY more time, energy, and $. (we know from a lot of experience!) so, if you are a white writer who has not yet returned ANY MONEY to Black and Indigenous MFA applicants, it's time to pay up! 🤷♀️💰
also, we haven't said it for a little bit, but to all of our volunteer readers and applicants: WE LOVE YOU. thank u for continuing to share ur sparkle with us all these years👯💖
sincerely, thank u all for ur support yesterday and today 🥰 we're gonna take a lil snooze aka work our money jobs🙃 if u've redistributed some money to us already, tell a friend! community care is self care.
for your copy-paste ease— business venmo: @mfaappreview cashapp: $mmpopkey. paypal and zelle: [email protected] send this week + support the wellness of ur tired self, ur fellow writers, ur bookshelf. trust us when we tell you, the work u are supporting is truly⚡️❤️🔥💫🌈
Applying to MFAs is EXPENSIVE! Being exhausted is ALSO expensive. Send some $$ support in the next 24 hrs to offset application costs for Black + Indigenous writers. Redistributing wealth is good for u. Deets in the image and description.
Hey all, the fundraiser is *officially* over, but if u return any money between now + thursday it will still go into the pool we send to our applicants. so, keep that $$ coming! we're obv still getting support coming in. most of it is $100, $75, $50, but we welcome ur $1k.
Twitter friends, we'd love your input, who are the best ppl for you to inform abt our fundraiser to offset MFA application fees for Black + Indigenous writers?
applying to MFAs is EXPENSIVE. if you see this tweet that means u can, at this very moment, send some $$ to our business venmo: @mfaappreview cashapp: $mmpopkey. paypal and zelle: [email protected] support Black and Indigenous writers today! do not delay <3
Support @MfaApp right now, it feels amazing
yes we will spam u but it's only for like 30 more minutes bc... 30 MINUTES LEFT before we close up our 2021 fundraiser! redistrbute your $$ now to support Black + Indigenous writers applying to MFAs
Support Black and Indigenous writers today!! Send in $$ to offset MFA application fees!
6 MINUTES LEFT til the fundraiser closes! we have a couple thousand in the bank, mostly in <$50 increments!
this is what we keep hearing!! we've got a lot of last-minute supporters popping in. KEEP EM COMING and BLESS U!

Do you have $$$ academic funding already? let's drain those ivory towers for all they've got! send in some cash. u may have zero control over the actual efficacy of any ~diversity~ initiatives at ur institution. but u CAN rn send us $35 aka like 2x takeout!
we have been supporting underrepresented writers as they apply to MFA programs for *five years* (whoa). the thing is, we cannot take on cis yt volunteers to read writing samples, etc. due to many reasons. if u are a cis yt writer who has asked us/ wants to know how to help...
i rlly like a trend we heard about, it's called send us $$ to support Black and Indigenous MFA applicants, + then venmo request that ammt from your older sibling who works in tech.
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm someone just sent us $1000😳😳😳
