SAW is Proud to Announce Two Recent $1,000 Donations
At SAW, we stand with those who have put their lives on the line for generations to fight for equal rights, equal footing, equal safety and equal expression. SAW was formed humbly, but from a privilege that we acknowledge and we commit now to creating equality in our realm, the realm of comics and teaching comics. ⠀
⠀
In 2020 we expanded our scholarship program to include three full scholarships to our year-long online certificate program for African-American students, as well as a number of partial scholarships to cover the cost of tuition. ⠀
⠀
In 2020-2021 we have donated thousands of dollars to comics projects supporting historically marginalized comics creators, plus $20,000+ to support the tuition costs of SAW programs for LGBTQ+, African American, Black, Indigenous and People of Color, as well as people with disabilities and people experiencing financial hardship.⠀
2021. ⠀
