The Sixth Annual Rochford Street Review Keep Alive Appeal

The Sixth Annual Rochford Street Review Keep Alive Appeal

We have had a big year at Rochford Street Review, publishing almost 100 reviews, articles and creative works by writers and artists so far. We have also curated a series of readings at the Little Lost Bookshop in Katoomba as well as extending our international connections with writers and publish overseas. All of this comes at a cost of course and, as we come up to the end of the year, we are faced with our annual financial hurdle as our web hosting fees for our main and test sites come up for renewal along with additional email, storage and subscription costs. 

As we receive no government or institutional support we rely on the support of our readers and supporter, and the ongoing financial contribution of the Rochford Street Review editors, to keep the journal alive. In order to maintain the Rochford Street Review website and continue publishing into 2026 we need to raise approximately $550 by the end of 2025.

There are a number of ways you can help us meet this target. The most immediate is to make a donation to the 6th Annual Rochford Street Review Keep Alive Appeal. You can do this by clicking on the box below.



 

You might also like to make an ongoing contribution by signing up to monthly subscription of $5, $10, $15 or $20 by going to our Supporting Subscription page.

If you would prefer to receive Rochford Street Review's articles by email you could also subscribe to the Substack feed which we have recently set up. A free subscription will mean that you will notified of each new post, a paid subscription of $5 a month (or $50 a year) will mean that you will receive each new article as an email to your in-box. You can subscribe to our Substack email feed here: Rochford Street Review Substack Subcription.
