Support the PAC

Make a donation

Give any amount, once or monthly. Every contribution strengthens the Society’s advocacy for physician-led, patient-centered care.

Both buttons open the Society’s hosted payment page at securepayment.link. You leave this site to give, and that page carries the Society’s name. This site never asks for card details.

Before you give

About your contribution

Contributions to SCSA PAC are not tax deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes.

SCSA PAC is a political committee and is separate from Society membership dues. A contribution here is not a dues payment, and dues do not fund the PAC.

South Carolina law limits the amount a candidate may accept from any one contributor in an election cycle. The PAC keeps to those limits when it gives.

South Carolina law requires the PAC to record the name, address, and occupation of each contributor, and to report its contributions and expenditures. Please give your full name, mailing address, and occupation when you contribute.

Contributions are voluntary. To ask about a contribution, reach any board member above or write to the Society.
