The Camellia Campaign marks a defining moment for WFS. It’s not just a celebration of our four-year journey — it’s a declaration of who we are and where we’re headed. In just a few short years, we have built more than a foundation; we’ve cultivated a movement. Rooted in trust, vision, and the brilliance of women and girls of color across the South, WFS is proving what’s possible when we invest in our own power.

The camellia flower, native to our region, mirrors that strength. Known for blooming even in the coldest months, it embodies resilience, grace, and enduring beauty — a living symbol of how we thrive through challenge and change. Like the camellia, our Foundation has taken root in demanding soil and still found ways to bloom — bright, strong, and deeply grounded in community.

In just four years, we have invested deeply in the brilliance of women, girls, and gender expansive people of color across the South — and this campaign is both a celebration of that journey and an invitation to continue growing together.
