Emergency Grants

It is vital to support writers in times of need so that they can get back to doing what they do best. DGF provides emergency financial assistance to individual playwrights, composers, lyricists, and librettists in dire need of funds due to severe hardship or unexpected illness.

If you are a writer in need, we can help.

Applications will be processed based on severity of need. Be advised, DGF cannot process requests for funds toward artistic projects of any kind. Funds are most often used for necessary expenses, such as rent, groceries, utility bills, and medical expenses.
