Guiding Support
Strengthening Society
Your support of CDI extends beyond the impact it has on our Scholars – it improves our community. CDI Scholars go on to become medical professionals, researchers and scientists, journalists and social workers, lawyers, teachers, business owners, and engineers, and many return to where they grew up to establish their adult lives. They are infused in the community, and they make us better.
