Connect to CK March 10 - 12, 2025

The second annual Connect to CK Challenge runs from March 10-12 this year. Support what you love about the Schools with a gift to The Cranbrook Schools Fund and help us reach our three-day goal of $500,000. Connect your gift to the impact area that means the most to you: Arts, Athletics, Campus, Faculty, Scholarship or Area of Greatest Need. Every gift counts and is an investment in our Schools.
