Women Giving for Spartanburg is a women's giving circle founded in 2007 as a special project of The Spartanburg County Foundation. Its mission is to maximize women's leadership in philanthropy by engaging and informing its membership, increasing charitable contributions, and significantly improving the greater Spartanburg community through the impact of collective giving.

About Us
Women Giving for Spartanburg is a non-endowed, donor advised fund of The Spartanburg County Foundation. It is the first major women's philanthropic initiative in the area, and is part of a larger national movement of women taking a leadership role in philanthropy to seek long-term solutions through leadership, community investment, fundraising, and advocacy. It is one of 400 similar giving circles who have collectively raised more than $100 million dollars in the last four years.
