The CK Fund was founded in 2020 by Kacey and Chris Clayton in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since its start, the CK Fund has been dedicated to hyper-local causes, focusing on neighbors helping neighbors in Northern Virginia. The CK Fund’s first initiative, the Stock the Pantry project, donated over 1,000 lbs of food and personal care supplies to the Culmore Resource Center and South Lakes Food Pantry. In August 2022, the CK Fund raised over $1,000 for school supplies for students returning to Bailey’s Elementary School in Falls Church, VA.

 

The CK Fund is focused on providing funding to help young people and their families, particularly in the areas of school, sports, and food security. The CK Fund prioritizes flexibility to support people and areas of the community that are in the most need. Through various fundraisers, the CK Fund targets specific needs and rapidly addresses community needs as they arise. The CK Fund is dedicated to helping young people in Northern Virginia through the mantra, “little by little, a little becomes a lot.”
