Perseverance Fund
The RWASD Perseverance Fund was established as a way for our members to help fellow members in need of short-term financial support. If you are considering not renewing due to financial hardship, please apply to have your Romance Writers of America® San Diego (RWASD) Chapter membership renewed. We value each and every member of the RWASD community.
Our Perseverance Fund is fully supported by donations, not member dues.
If you would like to make a donation, please know that your generosity will be most appreciated!
