CLOSE QUARTERS ($1000 LEVEL)
Donate to McSweeney’s today and join thousands of readers and friends who share our belief that human-made independent print media is revolutionary. Our work has never been more important, and independent publishing has never been in more peril.
McSweeney’s is a reader-funded nonprofit organization with a twenty-seven-year history of publishing groundbreaking literature and upholding unparalleled standards of visual design. Our work is only possible because readers like you want this kind of fearless book- and magazine-making in their lives and plunge in alongside us by donating to support us.
Sales of books and magazines cover about 80% of our nonprofit budget; the other 20% comes from grants and donations ranging from $10 to $10,000. McSweeney’s publishes boldly. Our books and magazines—elegantly designed, startlingly original—are like nothing else.
We believe that courageous work needs courageous people behind it. Your crucial role in McSweeney’s can never be overstated. With your help, we’ll courageously continue for decades to come.
Close Quarters members at the $1000 level will receive:
–A four-issue subscription to our award-winning McSweeney’s Quarterly literary journal, certain to astound and delight you with original art, bold new writing, and more.
–A special gift once per year, just for Close Quarters subscribers. Will it be a print, a drawing, an original poem, a personal letter to you from one of our editors, a rarity from our rich stash of past treasures or an unreleased little something that almost made it but didn’t quite? We can’t tell you what it will be, but we predict this special mailing will happen in January of each calendar year.
– Special recognition in print. Find your name in the Quarterly, on a list of the donors and friends who make our work possible.
This is a charitable gift to McSweeney’s Literary Arts Fund, a nonprofit organization, as described by IRS 501 c 3. For tax purposes, goods valued at $95 will be exchanged for this gift.
IMPORTANT LOGISTICAL INFORMATION: Close Quarters donations subscriptions automatically renew after one year, at the full cost of the original donation. We’ll write to you in the month prior to ask if you’d like to continue. At any time prior to that, you are welcome to cancel your subscription by logging in to your account and adjusting your subscription settings. Or send an email to [email protected] and she will gladly set up your donation according to your wishes. We’re so grateful you’re here.
