SCWH Launches 40th Anniversary Fundraising Campaign

To celebrate the fortieth anniversary of the Society of Civil War Historians’ founding, please join SCWH President Jason Phillips and President-Elect Amy Murrell Taylor in a campaign to invest in the SCWH’s future. All donations to the SCWH 40th campaign will support our graduate student and early career initiatives, awards, the Journal of the Civil War Era, and conferences. Over the past forty years, the Society has expanded the meaning of Civil War history and shared new knowledge about this vital chapter of America’s past with students, professionals, and the public.

Our goal is to raise $40,000 by June 2026, when we will meet in Richmond, to sustain the SCWH’s mission. Your support makes a difference, so please help us meet this goal by donating here. You can also purchase SCWH merchandise — as well as donate — online at the SCWH Bonfire store.
