Help West Hollywood Slam Team Reach the Big Foot Regional
Donation protected
Thanks for stopping by, we are West Hollywood's (Los Angeles) first official poetry slam team! We are a group of gender, sexually, and racially diverse poets, making our mark in the slam world. We competed at the 2024 Chillist, and received our first victory!
We were recently invited to compete in Portland, Oregon at The Big Foot Poetry Regional Slam. This is fantastic, and sudden news for us. The dates (June 11th - 15th) are fast approaching! Because our invitation came so abruptly, we didn't have the time to plan and fund accordingly.
We are asking that you donate whatever you can to help us afford our travel and living expenses for this trip. So you have an idea, here are the things we are paying for:
- Flights for two members
- Gas for two members
- Hotel accomodations
- Last minute living/travel expenses
We would be so grateful if you could help us achieve our financial goal, and get to our competition worry free!
A little about our family of competitors:

Again, thanks for taking time out to support hard-working poets!
