THANK YOU TO OUR ANGELS
We regret we have to close out the $5,000 Angel category as our space does not permit us to handle any more. We are still offering a special opportunity for the 2019 Rancho Mirage Writers Festival. Join our Golden Angels or Silver Angels and receive exclusive benefits.
Our angels provide a generous tax-deductible donation of $5,000. which can be paid with a check or credit card. These donations help to support honorariums and travel expenses to bring truly amazing writers to the Festival. We only have room for a limited number of angels, and when we reach that number we have to close the category.
- Two all access passes (value of $1,000).
- Lunches each day and closing luncheon.
- Special evening just for Angels January 29th with amazing guest speakers. Includes a reserved-seating Angels dinner.
- Dedicated Angel concierges.
