The Credo Community Center Endowment was first started by a relative of a graduate of Credo’s residential program. Upon her death she willed stock to Credo to be used to help clients further their education, vocational training, job training or develop a business. Since then others also left bequests to the Endowment and the Credo Community Center Board is now giving some of the interest earned from the Endowment to past clients who are clean and sober of any of the Credo Community Center Programs.
