Make
a Donation
We need your
help. The Watermark Literary Society presents the biennial Watermark Literary
Muster as a sharing with readers and writers of the best nature literature
that the world has to offer. It also administers the biennial Watermark
Fellowship to aid and encourage emerging new writers of the literature
of nature and place.
To do this takes
money – it’s an expensive exercise.
Your support
will help sustain the Watermark experience by providing much needed funds
that underwrite the costs associated with running a literary event and
appropriately remunerating the invited writers.
Tax
Deductability
The Watermark Literary Society Gift Fund is a tax deductible
fund listed on the Register of Cultural Organisations (ROCO) under Subdivision
30-F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. Unconditional donations of
$2.00 and over are fully tax deductible. |
