Funders Make Our Work Possible

Our Supporters

A diverse group of grantmakers and individual donors fuels CEP’s mission by supporting our general operations. Several funders also provide support for specific research projects, the YouthTruth initiative, the Giving Done Right podcast, and event sponsorship. From large, multiyear commitments to smaller annual contributions, each funder plays a critical role in advancing CEP’s work.
