Today I sit down with a heavy heart to process another round of Emergency Grants for @womeninclassics. Precarious classicists are in great need as a result of this year's events. What can you do to help? If you can spare anything, you might consider donating to any of these orgs:
Sportula Europe @SportulaEurope offer solidarity, not charity, in the form of microgrants for classicists in need in the UK and Europe. You can make a one-off donation or support monthly on justgiving. More info: https://sportulaeurope.wordpress.com/
Ancient World Magazine @AncientWorldMag has recently begun paying some of its authors, with preference given to those in precarious positions. More support means more pay (& more great articles!) Become a Patreon patron or donate on PayPal. More info: https://www.ancientworldmagazine.com/support/
We do accept donations to the WCC UK @womeninclassics, preferably by bank transfer; DM or email me (I'm the treasurer!) for more info.
New Classicists Journal @NewClassicists offers periodic grant schemes and opportunities to support PG classicists directly; you can also buy from their online shop to keep useful events free. More here: https://www.newclassicists.com/shop
And if you're in the US, try the original Sportula @Libertinopatren ( https://thesportula.wordpress.com/ ) and the SCS/WCC Covid Relief Fund @WCCSCSRelief ( https://classicalstudies.org/scs-news/scs-wcc-covid-19-relief-fund)
I'm sure there are more - do add them below. For me, it feels like a rather bleak midwinter this year. Helping others, if you are able, is a good tonic to that bleakness.
