The Southern Automotive Women’s Forum is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to the personal and professional advancement of women in the automotive industry. SAWF achieves this mission by collaborating with industry partners to create educational, mentoring, and networking opportunities for its members. Our members serve as strong role models for one another and for young women of all ages who are interested in STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) with the hope that they will apply these skills to the automotive industry of the future. We have two programs that reach out to the future generation of women in automotive: All Girls Auto Know and the SAWF Scholarship Program. All Girls Auto Know program is our middle school outreach program. We invite up to 300 Middle School Girls along with Teacher chaperones to a one-day experience which will explore the many options that are offered with careers in Automotive and STEM. Each event, though standardized content, is structured to best fit the requirements/restrictions of the host for the event, as well as the participating school systems. We offer these programs through out the year in various southern states. The SAWF Scholarship Program provides financial assistance to women enrolled or who plan to enroll in a STEM related field, such as science, technology, engineering, or math. Qualifications for scholarship applications are for women to be enrolled or enrolling in a STEM field at an accredited two-year technical program, four-year undergraduate program, or graduate program in a southern state with the goal to use their degree to have a career in the automotive industry.
