In July of 2006, the Wren's Nest was hanging on by a thread.


Bill collectors called incessently, we owed over $112,000 to 19 different creditors around town, and Georgia Power almost shut off our lights. We had no money, no programming, and no light at the end of the tunnel.


It was grim.


Then y'all came along. Contributions, ideas, and support from generous individuals like you kept the Wren's Nest afloat. We got back on our feet and haven't looked back.


Our staff has since worked hard to make the Wren's Nest more self-reliant. But we still need your help. Please consider a gift to the Wren's Nest today.


Thank you. Our storytelling programs, student publishing program, and ongoing preservation of the home wouldn't be possible without your support.
