Partner with the WAWH

The Western Association of Women Historians was founded in 1969 to promote the interests of women historians who work in a variety of career paths. The WAWH does this by:


  • holding annual conferences where members present scholarship and other intellectual work
  • publicly promoting its members' publications, projects, and initiatives
  • recognizing and honoring members’ achievements
  • mentoring members at every career stage
  • fostering the next generation of scholars
  • creating networking opportunities


When you donate to WAWH you partner with us in accomplishing this mission. 

  

Please consider donating to the following:


The Operational Fund: This is the account from which WAWH draws to pay for everyday expenses -- things like administration and the technology needed to do business in the 21st century. While this fund might not sound exciting, it supports the very foundation on which WAWH functions. The organization cannot operate without the Operational Fund.


The Travel Assistance Fund enables WAWH to provide conference travel grants to scholars who are without institutional support. These may be graduate students, contingent faculty, independent scholars, and other historians whose occupation does not offer funding for conference travel. Those interested in applying for such funds may do so through the conference registration form (typically available in January). Funds are limited so those in need are advised to register and apply early.


The Operational Fund and the Travel Assistance Fund are not flashy, but dollar for dollar, they benefit and empower the greatest number of members over the course of the year. 


If you would like to donate to an award account, please go to the Awards Overview web page, find the relevant award, and donate from that award’s web page.

 

Within the United States the Western Association of Women Historians is a registered tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization and all contributions are tax deductible. 

EIN: 33-0881544
