Support IV Words

Help amplify & drive
important public discussions, advocacy & activism.

<skip down to sponsorship descriptions>

IV Words isn’t entirely without the choice word dropped in now and again, sure, but “colorful language” means a whole lot more, here, too.

IV Words believes in and stands for equality and equity for everyone regardless of race, skin color, creed, gender, gender identity, geographic location, place of origin or sexual preference.

All are welcome. Whether all who land here want to come back is another matter.

MAGAts, right-wingers, fossil-fuel-company execs, climate-science deniers, anti-choicers, gun nuts and religious zealots likely won’t return. And that is so cool with me.

IV Words amplifies messages related to the climate crisis, environment, social justice/injustice, women’s rights, progressive causes and the way it is. Posts are news, feature stories, opinion pieces, satire, book/movie reviews, poetry and a few good stories thrown in now and again (creative non-fiction). I call out BS when I see, hear or smell it, and I don’t pull any punches.

I write because it’s what I am able to do to amplify and impact issues that are important to me. They must be important to you, too, or you wouldn’t be reading. Every week there’s at least one new post with a different way of looking at, thinking about or expressing ideas, injustices, inconsistencies and hypocrisies. Hope, too, when I can find it. 

I do all of this in my “spare” time and on my own dime.

But to write more progressive posts, do them better and provide more in-depth content for readers like you, I need some help.

Please support independent analysis, opinions and pointed protestations. Sponsor or donate to IV Words today!

Anonymous Support

Not every organization, business or individual wants to be publicly associated with the blunt, progressive, no bullshit, call bullshit content that is a hallmark of IV Words, even if you agree with and want to further the messages. We can still collaborate on some posts of importance to you, and you get to be a silent partner. You have my word.
