Health and Wellness
Includes food assistance, nutrition education and health management resources.
Why Health and Wellness
The CCF endeavors to fund community service organizations whose mission is food assistance, nutrition education, and proactive support of health and wellness for Clive residents. A community thrives when all residents enjoy good health and wellness.
We estimate up to 15% of our community, or over 2500 of our residents, is food insecure which means they do not have access to enough healthy food to feed their family. In the state of Iowa over 10% of our residents, or over 300,000 people, face food insecurity. That number includes over 100,000 children.
The Foundation is committed to helping change this alarming trend. We believe that addressing food insecurity is critical in our community. With proper food, nutrition, health and wellness resources, our community will thrive.
How Your Dollars Can Help
The Foundation works with community leaders to identify cost effective and impactful ways to locate public art on the Clive Greenbelt and bike and walking trails.
The City of Clive keeps our parks and trails in excellent condition. CCF seeks opportunities to invest in and improve our connections with nature’s gifts.
Your contribution to the Clive Community Foundation Impact Fund can make a real difference as we work to carry out these quality of life initiatives today, tomorrow and beyond our lifetimes!
