Solidarity Fund
You will also find the option to DONATE within the membership portal. The Solidarity Fund helps low-income scholars and activists attend our conferences by reducing costs for Zoom and on-ground presenters. Funds may also be used to help keep the overall costs of a conference lower, and for other activities inline with WCSA’s mission. Consider making a contribution today!
