If you'd like to support the work of The Southern Documentary Fund, your tax-deductible contribution can support SDF's mission to increase documentation of the stories of the American South. You may also support individual works in progress. Make your gift payable to The Southern Documentary Fund, and please specify which project you'd like to support.
Donate To A Project By Phone
You can donate to the project of your choice by calling SDF at (919) 308-3714 and using your Master Card or Visa.
Donate To A Project Online Via PayPal
We accept secure online donations through PayPal. All you need is a credit card (a PayPal account is not required). You can make a general donation to the SDF or donate to a specific project (below). Donors should be aware that, due to PayPal fees of 2.9% +$.30, which often exceed SDF's standard 5%, fees will be taken directly from PayPal donations.
