Donating is a powerful way to give to our community and to fund the work that helps make a difference...

Our donors are the lifeblood of our organization. Whether an individual, a family, a business or a foundation, these people have seen the value and power of our work and support it. As we continue to fund new programming for the community and to fulfill our mission, we ask you to join us, by making a contribution to CARP.

Here are just a few of the highlights of putting that money to work....

CARP
“As the parents of triplets, CARP took a large financial burden off of our family which opened up a wonderful experience for our children at Camp Crellin. This organization is truly a win-win for everyone involved!“

The Calyer Family
  • Over the past 8 years generated more than $50,000 in scholarships to send kids to summer camp for 6 weeks which includes master swimming skills.
  • In combination with The Town of Chatham, put on the yearly Park Day event, which brings together people in the community for a day of fun activities, games, performance, food and fellowship. Last year alone the event attracted more than 600 participants.
  • In addition to funding the origins of the Chatham Children’s Garden, CARP continues to fund many sustaining activities including purchase of supplies, tools and yearly clean-up activities contributing over $2,500 alone over the last two years.
  • In just its second year, our Performances in the Park program presented two performances – The Alchemist in July and Julius Caesar in September – drawing many to the park to enjoy free live theatre.
