Welcome to the Cultivating Resources and Opportunities Community Foundation!

We are honored that you’re here.

The Cultivating Resources and Opportunities (CRO) Community Foundation exists to strengthen lives, expand opportunity, and invest in the bright futures of students, families, and communities in Eastern Wake County and beyond. Founded with purpose and grounded in service, our work centers on education, wellness, and uplift, because when individuals thrive, communities thrive.

Through scholarships, community partnerships, and strategic giving, we support scholars with promise, ensure mental-health resources reach students who need them, and collaborate with organizations committed to creating pathways to success. Our goal extends beyond awarding funds, we are building confidence, supporting dreams, and helping shape leaders, change-makers, and compassionate citizens.

We invite you to learn more about our impact, explore ways to give or partner, and stay connected to the work ahead. Together, we can continue creating meaningful change, opportunity, and hope, today and for generations to come.

If you have questions or would like to connect with us, please email info@crocommunityfoundation.org.

We look forward to building with you.
