The CTW is a 501(c)3 educational non-profit that does not receive institutional, private donor or grant funding. For our Summer School, we maintain a sliding scale down to zero for the program fees, and we do everything that we can to work with people’s financial needs. However, as an independent, non-profit institution, we also have to pay people for their labor, cover our costs, and generate some revenue for our projects, many of which we offer as free and open to the public. Therefore, we commonly request that applicants for the Summer School do everything that they can to obtain funding from external sources or their home institutions–if they have one–in order to support our alternative educational platform. Revenue that is generated through donations or higher fees for salaried workers is redestributed in the form of scholarships for those in need.
