Giving Societies
Giving societies set a standard of commitment that encourages support from others and recognize donors whose generous support enable the USC School of Social Work to maintain its status as one of the top social work graduate programs in the country. In appreciation, we offer a variety of recognition opportunities for select contributors and those who are able to give at leadership levels.
