Where the Money Comes From
Communities Fund Their Own Children.
The Foundation does not sell anything. There is no ticket price, no tuition, no product margin quietly covering the cost of this work. Every camp seat, every classroom kit, every scholarship written in a child’s name was paid for by a person, a family or a company who decided to fund it.
It means a fourth grader gets a seat at a robotics camp because somebody — a neighbor, a credit union, the plant that employs half her street — put money behind the idea that she should have the opportunity. Investing in a community is never an abstraction.
So when you give here you are not funding an institution. You are giving something a child would otherwise go without. Thank you for your willingness to invest in their futures.
This outreach runs on gifts. Every dollar of it starts with a donor or a corporate sponsor deciding to give one.
Sponsor a Student
Point Your Gift at Something Specific.
Give once, monthly or yearly — and tell the Foundation where you want it to work. You can designate a program, an age group, a career field, a community, or none of the above and let the board decide.
A tax-deductible investment
The Central Creativity Foundation is an independent 501(c)(3) public charity. Gifts are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law, and you will receive a written acknowledgment for your records.
Designations are honored
A gift designated to a program is applied to that program. If a designated program is already funded for the year, the board will contact you before applying your gift anywhere else — it will not quietly become general revenue.
Close to home, if you ask
Tell us the community you want your giving to reach and the Foundation will tell you honestly what it already runs there, and what it would take to start something if it runs nothing yet.

Pledge to Give
Commit to a monthly or yearly amount. Predictable giving is what lets the board promise a school a program before the money is in hand.
