Donating to Shared Worlds

While Shared Worlds is hosted by Wofford College, the program functions independently. Shared Worlds receives no direct financial support from Wofford and is instead funded by participant tuition. Contributions from donors and our support from Amazon.com have helped us to offer greater scholarship support to our students and to provide a better overall Shared Worlds experience. Our hope is to make Shared Worlds a possibility for all registered students, no matter what their financial need.

Shared Worlds is very grateful for recent contributions from Warren Lapine, Lisa Harrigan (in memory of Eadie Deutsch), Michael Chabon and Ayelet Waldman.
