Creative Grant Recipients
A new model for sustainable storytelling.
At Ori, we value quality storytelling. We also know that work comes at a cost to creators. In today’s media landscape of shrinking budgets, shuttering publications and the oversaturation of underpaid, surface level clickbait, it can be hard to find support for longform projects, and as a result, many great stories simply go untold.
