Support Your Community

When you donate to the Clayton Community Foundation, you invest in your community.

The Clayton Community Foundation (CCF) was officially established in August 2008 as a first-time nonprofit 501c3 partner to the City of Clayton, Missouri. It is focused on creating significant opportunities to benefit the community in core areas of Art, History, Parks, and Sustainability,

There are many ways to support CCF.

  • We appreciate donations of any size to support our mission.

  • The Clayton Circle (CC) celebrates donors at $1,000 and above. Generous CC donors are recognized as stellar stewards of the community. Throughout the year, special recognition is given to the patrons at CC giving level. CC also offers a variety of events, such as the CCF At Home series, to the wider public and always welcomes support of CCF at any level.

  • Honor a loved one, gift a tribute, recognize historical places, and provide a beautiful dedication for years to come.

  • Enhance the parks, streets, and programs of our community. Your tax deductible donation allows the city the ability to install a tree, bench, flowers, among other opportunities.
