Below, please find descriptions about each of CPF’s specific funding areas. To contribute to any of these funds, please select the desired fund on the drop down program area option found on the online giving site, or note the fund on the memo line of your check.
Research Fund
CPF has been funding research into the causes and treatments of cleft and craniofacial birth defects since 1989. To date, CPF has awarded over $570,000 in research funding. Donations made to the Research Fund will be applied to the five grants that are awarded each year. To read more about the research grants and the studies that have been supported, please click here.
Bear Fund
CPF is pleased to offer custom-made Gund teddy bears with cleft lip repair stitches across their lip. Donations to the Bear Fund help subsidize the cost of the bears for families around the world. Read more about CPF’s Bears for the Kids project.
Student Scholarship Fund
Each year CPF offers a minimum of three college scholarship to undergraduate and graduate students with facial differences. With increased awareness of the scholarships comes greater competitiveness for the available monies. CPF aims to award scholarships to as many qualified applicants as possible. Supporting the Student Scholarship Fund means helping outstanding students like the 2010 Scholarship recipients pay for a portion of their higher education.
