It was agreed that the money collected would be divided: Fasola Minutes, donation to the church, and the remainder to Spartanburg County History Museum (which hosts an exhibit on William Walker), a donation from The William Walker Memorial Singing. We are keeping a zero balance as we no longer have a bank account.
