2015 PEN Hemingway Grant Success
For 2015, a non-conference year, we lowered our sights in the Hemingway Foundation's fund-raising campaign in support of the PEN/Hemingway Award in first fiction. And we exceeded expectations.
In 2014, this ramped-up effort resulted in a $10,000 boost as generous members stepped up to meet the $5,000 challenge offered by Steve Paul and Carol Zastoupil. Based on that success, the foundation board last spring voted to increase the annual donation in support of the award program by $4,000 to a total of $15,000.
