Empower the Hearts of Our Community

We provide multiple pathways for individuals and organizations to empower, fund, and celebrate social workers who dedicate their lives to the community.

  • Adopt a Social Worker: Provide targeted financial relief for emerging professionals by covering the heavy costs of licensure exams, practice tests, and vital study materials.

  • Empower Emerging Leaders: Universities can sponsor current social work students to attend the SWAG Awards, offering them critical networking opportunities, inspiration, and recognition before they enter the workforce.

  • Donate or Sponsor: Support the foundation’s year-round wellness programs and continuing education initiatives through one-time or monthly donations, or boost your brand’s visibility by sponsoring the annual SWAG Awards.

Adopt a Social Worker

The “Adopt a Social Worker” campaign by the SWAG Alliance Foundation provides vital financial and practical support to help emerging social workers overcome the costs and challenges of obtaining their professional licensure.

  • Targeted Financial Relief: The initiative removes major financial barriers by covering the costs of official licensure exam fees, practice tests, and continuing education units (CEUs).

  • Flexible Giving Options: Supporters can choose from five distinct sponsorship tiers, ranging from a $100 “Starter Step” for practice exams to a $1,000 “Future Leader” package that funds a social worker’s complete certification journey.

  • Comprehensive Career Support: Beyond just paying for exams, the program supplies essential study materials and specialized trainings designed to reduce test anxiety, build confidence, and prepare candidates for immediate impact in their field.

Support an Emerging Leader

The SWAG Alliance Foundation’s “Emerging Leaders” sponsorship program invites universities to invest in the future of the social work profession by sponsoring students to attend the SWAG Awards.

  • Support Future Professionals: This initiative allows universities to directly support their social work students, helping them feel recognized and inspired as they prepare to enter a demanding field.

  • Valuable Networking: Sponsored students gain the opportunity to connect with alumni, established leaders, and potential future employers at the event.

  • Tiered University Recognition: Universities can choose between “Premier” ($2,500) and “Partner” ($1,000) sponsorship levels, both offering significant brand visibility across event signage, programs, websites, and social media platforms.
