Help creativity do what it does best, bring people together.
Support Creative Community Impact ASSOCIATION
At CCIA, we believe creativity is a powerful tool for community-driven change. It is how we facilitate important conversations, practice collective care, and gently advocate for a more inclusive world.
We keep our adult programming completely free because cost should never stand in the way of taking part. Free programming isn’t free to run, and community support is what helps make it possible.
Your Gift in Action
When you give to CCIA, you help us use creativity to bring people together, open conversations, and build more inclusive communities.
Your support helps make possible:
-
Free programming: Keeping our adult sessions free so that cost doesn't stand in the way of taking part.
-
Creative materials: Providing the paints, clay, tools, and other supplies people need to simply show up and create.
-
Welcoming spaces: Creating accessible and inclusive environments where people can feel comfortable being themselves, connecting with others, and taking part.
Supporting new programming, partnerships, and creative projects that allow us to reach more people and explore new ways of creating community.
Every gift matters. Whether you make a one-time donation or choose to give monthly, your support helps us continue offering free creative programming and building a sustainable organization.
