“Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.”
Proverbs 11:25 

When you give to CIPS, you support work rooted in the teachings of Jesus and committed to character, wisdom, dignity, and responsible leadership in public life.

Your support helps us provide teaching, writing, civic education, events, and leadership formation for public servants, emerging leaders, and citizens who want to understand public life more deeply and engage it without losing their humanity.

CIPS remains independent of candidates, political parties, political action committees, and political operatives. That independence allows us to speak clearly about character, leadership, public responsibility, and the principles that should guide those who serve.

CIPS is sustained by people who believe that how we lead matters, how we treat people matters, and character still matters in public life.

If you believe this work is needed, we invite you to help us continue it.
