Organizational Partners
The Noble Foundation
SWCUC has the most amazing organizational/Fiscal sponsorship relationship with The Noble Foundation. TNF has been integral to the establishment of SWCUC. They have provided seed grants to get the organization started and have provided Grant writing services, full fiscal sponsorship on all fronts, and so much more! We would not be where we are today without our (c)3 partner.
