Shop for affordable, quality items knowing that 100% of proceeds go back to support our organization’s mission (teachers and therapists love our gift cards!). Participate in inclusive programs open to everyone such as free community storytimes and playgroups, affordable therapeutic enrichment classes, parent meet-ups, and free on-site respite for families with children in therapy. Volunteer to help with daytime, evening, and weekend shifts. Adults and students 14+ welcome!Help Support Our Programs
Every single C.I.T.Y. program or event that you have participated in was made possible by community members like you!
As a 100% volunteer run nonprofit, we rely on both financial support and volunteer time from our members and community sponsors in order to keep growing!

C.I.T.Y. member donations accounted for about 56% of all funding for 2023! Every little bit helps us grow.
