“I have been an ardent member of SpeakEasy ever since it began. I look forward to every show, and they are always interesting and thought-provoking. The speakers often move me to tears with their performances, which are as diverse as they are fascinating.”

House of SpeakEasy is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that celebrates the transformative power of literature. Seriously Involved is SpeakEasy’s outreach initiative serving students and readers in underserved communities. We send writers into high schools and after-school programs in Brooklyn, The Bronx, and East Harlem to work with students on their writing, public speaking, and critical thinking skills to help level the playing field for those hoping to go onto college. The SpeakEasy Bookmobile delivers books to readers in areas where bookstores are in short supply in New York City and across the country. Please consider supporting these initiatives by making a donation to the SpeakEasy Foundation.
All donations and membership fees are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowable.
