Provide scholarship opportunities for people who have been historically excluded from comics, arts and literary education
(We typically give $20,000 a year in scholarships...)

Support affordable classes for teens and adults
(SAW works with local communities to make storytelling classes accessible to all...)

Keep the lights on in our brick-and-mortar school in Gainesville and in the homes of our staff throughout the United States
(Our local rent and utilities are quite affordable at $25,000 a year...)

Pay for online logistics and software
(SAW typically spends $7,000 a year in software alone and roughly $5,000 in bank and service fees...)

Support free public events and exhibitions, both in-person and online (Friday Night Comics, for instance, pays each artist $150, that's $7500 a year for weekly free events.)

Create new professional development opportunities for emerging, established and expert cartoonists. (SAW is currently donating space to 6 emerging artists in Gainesville, FL. Contact Emma to become one of them!)

Help secure a future by building savings for future upgrades and other investments . (A space to house people for a short or long term is one of our long-term goals.)

To keep our library well-stocked with important new and old works. (SAW typically spends more than $1000 a year on book purchases.)

Cover the cost of materials and resources for workshops. (Pencils and paper keep going up!) :)

And much, much more...
