Support Friends of CCPA and Donate

The Friends of CCPA (Friends) was established as an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving Cincinnati College Preparatory Academy (CCPA). Cincinnati College Preparatory Academy is a tuition-free, public charter school, offering high-quality education for grades K - 12 located in the West End neighborhood of downtown Cincinnati.

The Friends started in 2025 with a group of CCPA supporters to raise and accept contributions to provide financial assistance to CCPA students, teachers, and staff.

The Friends of CCPA are governed by a Board of Directors composed of community members. Additionally, we are advocates of public education who work closely with CCPA to ensure that high-quality programs and services are maintained for all students.

Funded by support from dedicated and generous donors in our community, Friends of CCPA ensures that CCPA students and teachers will continue to have the leading-edge programs and resources that our school deserves. CCPA fosters academic excellence through teacher grants, classroom technology upgrades, and many other innovative programs. Through our ongoing efforts, we are ensuring that the CCPA tradition can remain as proud and strong as ever.

The Friends work with the school and the CCPA board to develop fundraising campaigns. Gifts to Friends can be designated for specific uses or can go into the Friend's general fund. The board of CCPA, with guidance from the faculty and staff, will submit written requests for funds. The Friends board can release the requested funds, suggest modifications to the request, or deny the request.

All donations to the Friends are 100% tax-deductible.

The Friends of CCPA depend on the generosity of loyal supporters, partners, and friends. Your generosity is vital to our ability to provide our students and staff at CCPA with the tools and resources they need to thrive inside the classroom. What better way to fulfill this purpose than to recognize and reward outstanding students and staff and to respond to the needs of the classrooms?

Please consider making a gift to the Friends of CCPA today!
