CPC is funded by Jack and Barbara Clarke through their private non-profit organization, The Vito-Clarke Foundation.

They partner with non-profit organizations around the world. The program teaches the art and technique of photography to children and youth who otherwise have limited access to creative outlets. Cameras and all necessary equipment are provided to the partnering non-profit organization so that the program may continue with a local photographer.

Students are taught camera mechanics utilizing advanced point-and-shoot cameras. They are given various photo assignments to open their eyes to the world around them and help them see their world with a different view. Assignments are customized to the particular needs and ages of the students.

The Vito-Clarke Foundation is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization.
