Support the Clay Center

Charitable Contributions
Charitable contributions to the Clay Center take many forms and come in many sizes. They can be made immediately or deferred for some period of time. They can happen very simply such as writing a check or using a credit card, or made through more complicated gift plan arrangements such as trusts. They can be in the form of cash, stocks and bonds, tangible personal property such as art works and automobiles, or even using life insurance and real estate. Regardless of how much you give, what you give, how you give it, or when you give it, the Clay Center greatly appreciates your generosity.

The Clay Center was forged from the charitable acts of thousands of individuals, corporations, and organizations. Its destiny to become the premiere arts and sciences museum, performance center and cultural organization in the region cannot be fulfilled without the continued contributions of people like you. Hopefully, on these pages, you will find ways that you can continue what began so many years ago. The future of the Clay Center is in your hands. Please help leave a legacy for the adults and children of West Virginia, and beyond.
