CLIP depends completely on donations to fund the programs not covered by normal school district funds. These programs include: Mandarin Chinese curriculum, Instructional Assistants, CLIP Art program, Project Cornerstone, Book Fair, Mid-Autumn Moon Festival, Chinese New Year Parade, and more!

Our projected expenses for 2023-24 total over $700,000!  The goal for our Direct Give Campaign is to have all families take part in raising over $468,000 in donations.  Our budget also depends on corporate matching programs, so please do not forget to submit your donation match. Receipts will be provided by our treasurer in 2-3 weeks.

Suggested donation before company match:

$800 per student (K-5)
$225 per student (6-8)
