The Contributor helps our homeless neighbors establish their own micro-businesses and work their way into housing through selling our award winning street paper. Our paper covers all things related to poverty, homelessness, housing in the Middle Tennessee area. We write short features, news stories, publish investigative work and provide a space for people on the streets to write in their own words. We typically pay 10-15 cents per word but sometimes pay more based on experience.
