Special Funds

The Founders’ Fund was established to honor our Founding Members Sally Foster, Tracy Hannah, & Julie Lowry and thank them for their dedication to Spartanburg. This fund offers members of the community an additional opportunity to contribute to Women Giving for Spartanburg.

Fund the Future: encouraging women in our group and the community to gift a Women Giving Membership to a young woman in their family or in their life.

SHEro: a woman admired or idealized for her courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities; a heroine.

Women Giving for Spartanburg wants to give you the chance to recognize and thank the SHEros in your life.

Individuals may recognize women who have inspired them by making a donation to Women Giving for Spartanburg. SHEro donations will help cover administrative costs, allowing more of our membership payments to support Grants.

We will recognize these women throughout the year on social media and our newsletter.

The Jan Scalisi Scholarship Fund was established not only to honor Jan, but also to ensure that those committed to helping Spartanburg would be able to do so no matter their circumstances. Jan was an active member on the Grants Committee and believed strongly in collective giving.
