At Wordcrafters, we want everyone to have access to creativity, craft, and community.
How Our Pricing Works
One Price – Based on Real Costs
Each class and event is listed at the actual cost for our nonprofit to offer it.
If You Need a Lower Price
If paying the full price would keep you from participating, you’re welcome to use the coupon code ACCESS to reduce your registration amount by 20%.
If You Can Pay the Full Price
This might be you if:
– You’re living with limited or unpredictable income
– You’re navigating medical, housing, or debt-related stress
– You’d have to choose between this class and basic needs
We ask that you do.
Using the full price when you’re able helps us keep this community thriving and makes sure the ACCESS option stays available to those who genuinely need it.
Able to Pay It Forward? Add a Donation
If you have the resources, you can add a donation during registration checkout. All donations go straight into our scholarship fund to help more writers join us.
We Trust You
You know your financial situation better than anyone. We simply ask that you choose with care—for yourself and for the community you’re part of.
Need More Support?
If the ACCESS discount isn’t enough, you’re welcome to request additional financial help through a partial scholarship. Please complete our scholarship request form.
