Fund for the future
SABEW's Fund for the Future is a new fundraising drive that seeks to provide this organization with the financial muscle required to create more innovative training opportunities at a cost that will fit into shrinking newsroom budgets.

SABEW already helps our 3,500 members in numerous ways: from industry news and professional tips contained in our newsletter, The Business Journalist, and on our Web site -- to the hands-on teaching experiences and networking at our conferences and workshops.

Fund for the Future will help SABEW strengthen the quality of business journalism. To meet new challenges, SABEW must explore new training methods ­ from online or telephone seminars to becoming a Web-based aggregator of pioneering business journalism reporting and editing tools.

Klott Foundation
The Gary Klott Memorial Fund was established to focus on business journalism ethics. Gary Klott was President of SABEW in 1994-95, and an architect of the SABEW code of ethics in business journalism. He also planted the seed for the SABEW best in business contest and founded the SABEW futures committee to help manage what became rapid growth of the society in the late 1990’s.

SABEW wants to further develop these efforts by organizing workshops and other programs that would help journalists resolve the ethical issues they meet on the career-path.

Memorial fund established for Benita Newton
SABEW's latest educational effort is to foster interest in business journalism among minority college students and to raise the financial literacy of future reporters and editors who pursue careers in all aspects of journalism.

At the core of this endeavor is a cooperative program between SABEW and journalism educators, college newspaper advisers, and students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) through the Black College Communication Association, a nonprofit group consisting of administrators, faculty and staff at HBCUs with communication programs.
