CFC provides a continuum of youth-service projects and free curricula that span the full breadth of development - from early childhood through high school. Click here to see a listing of program toolkits, guides, and lesson plans that you can download online or request by mail.
The service project of the month projects take place once or twice monthly during the school year, typically on Friday afternoons and Saturdays. Educators are encouraged to contact us about bringing groups to the Service project of the month, or hosting a project. Check out our events calendar for this month's projects.
