Raise 1 Million Dollars Campaign
SWAN holds a large vision. We know that community will support the lives of women who have sacrificed a part of theirs for the well being of whole communities. With that in mind, it is the intention of SWAN to raise 1 million dollars. This will allow SWAN to increase our reach, and put a dot in every state so that women receive the needed services from women who understand. We ask you to be part of the healing process for our service women and their families who are affected by their service.
