Ever since the fire on Jan 23rd, we have been working tirelessly to restore our services and continue our role as a community service organization. Meanwhile, we received lots of care, encouragement, and support from the City, our friends, colleagues, and the community. Many of you have offered help and mobilized others to help. CMP has been very grateful for that!

Now, we have officially launched the "CMP Rebirth Fund". Please join our efforts in rebuilding CMP and continuing serving the community. Your support will be greatly appreciated!

2019 Campaign for Self-Sufficiency

Every year, CMP runs a Campaign for Self-Sufficiency to raise funds to directly assist low-income individuals in learning necessary skills to search and get a job, or learn to start and sustain a small business. All funds raised through this campaign go directly into program services including work readiness sessions, job skills training, small business startup seminars, and job placement services.

With your help, this year we’re aiming to raise $60,000 to continue providing great services to the community. Would you be joining us to promote economic self-sufficiency and career advancement for the community?
