By sharing the work of traditional artists, we help foster appreciation for cultural expression and encourage meaningful connections among people from all walks of life.
What it reported doing in 2024
Programming and world culture in context - world culture in context (wcc) invites k-12 students on a virtual field trip by connecting them with renowned performing artists and community tradition-bearers from across the globe. Through this program, students experience participating artists in the places that have profoundly shaped their work. Each program features a 15-20 minute video presentation highlighting the artist in a place of importance to their work, followed by a live, remote video conversation between artists and students. Ccv supplies participating wcc educators with grade appropriate curriculum materials introducing the featured tradition, artists, and the geographic and cultural context of their work. The results of this program service include: production of 14 videos with participating artists

- Distribution model

- Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
